NICO-FTP 3.0.1.19 contains a structured exception handler buffer overflow vulnerability that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending crafted FTP commands. Attackers can connect to the FTP service and send oversized data in response handlers to overwrite SEH pointers and redirect execution to injected shellcode.
AnalysisAI
NICO-FTP 3.0.1.19 contains a structured exception handler buffer overflow vulnerability that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending crafted FTP commands. Rated critical severity (CVSS 9.3), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787), which allows attackers to write data beyond allocated buffer boundaries leading to code execution or crashes. NICO-FTP 3.0.1.19 contains a structured exception handler buffer overflow vulnerability that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending crafted FTP commands. Attackers can connect to the FTP service and send oversized data in response handlers to overwrite SEH pointers and redirect execution to injected shellcode. Affected products include: Nico-Ftp.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Validate write boundaries, use memory-safe languages, enable compiler protections (ASLR, stack canaries).
