FreeFloat FTP Server - Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

 
          Ashfaq Ansari Reported FreeFloat FTP Server - Buffer Overflow Vulnerability. In computer security and programming, a buffer overflow, or buffer overrun, is an anomaly where a program, while writing data to a buffer, overruns the buffer's boundary and overwrites adjacent memory. This is a special case of violation of memory safety.Buffer overflows can be triggered by inputs that are designed to execute code, or alter the way the program operates.This may result in erratic program behavior, including memory access errors, incorrect results, a crash, or a breach of system security.

This Exploit helps to gain remote access on FreeFloat FTP using FEAT command.
