FileZilla Server < 0.9.44 OpenSSL Heartbeat Information Disclosure (Heartbleed)

high Nessus Plugin ID 73640

Synopsis

The remote FTP server is affected by an information disclosure vulnerability.

Description

According to its banner, the version of FileZilla Server running on the remote host is prior to 0.9.44. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure vulnerability.

An information disclosure flaw exists with the OpenSSL included with FileZilla Server. A remote attacker could read the contents of up to 64KB of server memory, potentially exposing passwords, private keys, and other sensitive data.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to FileZilla Server version 0.9.44 or later.
