DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw was found in the FTP GVfs backend. A remote attacker could exploit this input validation vulnerability by supplying specially crafted file paths containing carriage return and line feed (CRLF) sequences. These unsanitized sequences allow the attacker to terminate intended FTP commands and inject arbitrary FTP commands, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or other severe impacts.

AnalysisAI

FTP command injection in GVfs backend allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary FTP commands by embedding CRLF sequences in crafted file paths, potentially leading to unauthorized access or code execution. The vulnerability requires user interaction and affects systems utilizing the FTP GVfs backend for file operations. A patch is available to remediate this input validation weakness.
