Detail
| Kalle Olavi Niemitalo found two boundary errors in the fsplib library, a copy of which is included in gFTP source. A remote attacer could trigger these vulnerabilities by enticing a user to download a file with a specially crafted directory or file name, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code (CVE-2007-3962) or a denial of service (CVE-2007-3961). The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues. |
