| Detailed Description |
The 4D WebSTAR server, according to its banner, has a Remote FTP Buffer Overflow Vulnerability. 4D WebSTAR Server is a software product that provides Web, FTP, and Mail services for Mac OS X. 4D WebSTAR 5.3.2 and earlier are vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow in the FTP service, caused by a failure of the application to properly verify buffer boundaries when storing user supplied input into internal, static buffers. By sending a long FTP command, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and possibly execute arbitrary code on the system with WebSTAR user and group id 'wheel' privileges.
* Note: This check solely relied on the banner of the remote 4D WebSTAR server and whether the FTP service is running, to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a False Positive.
