A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server version 3.0.2, where a remote authenticated user can trigger a buffer overflow by sending an excessively long FTP command. This flaw allows for the execution of arbitrary code on the server, potentially leading to full system compromise.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module exploit targeting a buffer overflow vulnerability in GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server versions prior to 3.0.3 (CVE-2005-1415). The exploit requires valid FTP credentials (or anonymous access) and connects to the FTP service (typically on TCP port 21). It constructs a specially crafted input buffer to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow, overwriting the return address and executing arbitrary shellcode provided by the user (Metasploit payload). The module is written in Ruby and follows the standard Metasploit exploit structure, including payload customization and target selection. The exploit is operational and can be used to gain code execution on vulnerable Windows systems running the affected FTP server.
