Directory Traversal (Chroot Escape) vulnerability in uftpd

Published Jan 22, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

In uftpd before 2.11, it is possible for an unauthenticated user to perform a directory traversal attack using multiple different FTP commands and read and write to arbitrary locations on the filesystem due to the lack of a well-written chroot jail in compose_abspath(). This has been fixed in version 2.11
