Turbo FTP Server 1.30.823 and 1.30.826 contain a buffer overflow in processing of the FTP PORT command. A remote unauthenticated attacker can send a specially crafted payload that overwrites memory structures and executes arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/windows/ftp/turboftp_port.rb) that exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in the PORT command of Turbo FTP Server versions 1.30.823 and 1.30.826 on Windows. The exploit leverages a ROP chain and egghunter to bypass DEP and execute arbitrary code as SYSTEM. The module is highly weaponized, allowing the attacker to deliver any Metasploit payload (such as a reverse shell or Meterpreter session) to the vulnerable server. The exploit targets the FTP service (typically on TCP port 21) and uses process-specific ROP gadgets from tbssvc.exe. The module includes automatic target version detection and is designed for reliable remote code execution. No hardcoded IPs or domains are present, but the exploit is fingerprintable by its use of the FTP PORT command and the specific versions of Turbo FTP Server it targets.
