Description

Heap-based buffer overflow in FutureSoft TFTP Server Multithreaded (MT) 1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code by sending a crafted packet to port 69/UDP, which triggers the overflow when constructing an absolute path name. NOTE: Some details are obtained from third party information.

Public exploits

Exploit or proof-of-concept code for this vulnerability is publicly available, which lowers the bar for attackers. Treat it as a reason to patch sooner.

Third-party code, not reviewed by us. Public PoCs are sometimes fake or contain malware. Read the code first and run it only in an isolated lab, against systems you are authorised to test.
