Information

The FTP service allows remote users to access shared files and directories that could provide access to system resources and compromise the system, especially if the user can gain access to the root directory of the boot drive.

NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Configure the FTP sites to allow access only to specific FTP shared resources. Do not allow access to other areas of the system.
