Serv-U < 9.0.0.1

medium Nessus Plugin ID 41980

Synopsis

The remote FTP server is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The installed version of Serv-U is earlier than 9.0.0.1 and as such is reportedly affected by following issues :

- Provided 'SITE SET' command is enabled, an authorized user may be able to crash the remote FTP server by sending a specially crafted 'SITE SET TRANSFERPROGRESS ON' command.

- An unprivileged user may be able to view all drives and virtual paths for drive '\'.

Solution

Upgrade to Serv-U version 9.0.0.1 or later.
