Loading vulnerability…
A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in FileZilla Server Terminal version 0.9.4d. The vulnerability is triggered when a remote attacker sends an overly long USER command to the FTP server, causing a buffer overflow in the terminal process. This can result in a crash of the terminal, leading to a denial of service condition.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module targeting a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability in the FileZilla FTP Server Administration Interface (CVE-2005-3589). The exploit works by sending 4000 USER commands with increasingly long usernames to the admin interface over TCP, causing a stack overflow and crashing the admin interface process (FileZilla Server Interface.exe). The FTP server itself remains unaffected and continues to function. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a typical Metasploit module, making use of the framework's TCP and DoS auxiliary components. The only file present is the exploit module itself, and there are no additional resources or payloads. The exploit is a proof-of-concept (POC) and does not provide further post-exploitation capabilities.
