Ipswitch WS_FTP Professional HTTP Server Response Format String Vulnerability
12 Mar 2010
Ipswitch WS_FTP Professional client is prone to a format-string vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before passing it as the format specifier to a formatted-printing function.

An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the vulnerable application. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in a denial-of-service condition.

WS_FTP Professional 12 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
