Description
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in i-Ftp version 2.20 due to improper handling of the Time attribute within Schedule.xml. By placing a specially crafted Schedule.xml file in the i-Ftp application directory, a remote attacker can trigger a buffer overflow during scheduled download parsing, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or a crash.
