Description |
wu-ftpd contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to gain access to unauthorized privileges. The issue is triggered when an ftp client is transferring a file, then closes the connection and sends an ABOR command, which causes the server to execute the dologout() function, allowing the user to gain root privileges. This flaw may lead to a loss of confidentiality and/or integrity.
