Description |
A remote overflow exists in Libxml2. The nanoftp daemon fails to perform proper bounds checking, resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted overly-long request URI, reportedly about 4096 bytes, an attacker can potentially execute arbitrary code resulting in a loss of possible unauthorized remote access.
