Loading vulnerability…
Easy File Sharing FTP Server 3.6 contains a directory traversal vulnerability that allows remote attackers to list and download arbitrary files from the filesystem outside the intended FTP root directory. The vulnerability is due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input, enabling attackers to use traversal sequences (such as '../') to access files outside the FTP root.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary scanner module targeting a directory traversal vulnerability (CVE-2017-6510) in Easy File Sharing FTP Server version 3.6 and earlier. The exploit leverages the FTP RETR command with directory traversal sequences (../) to download arbitrary files from the server's filesystem. The module allows the user to specify the traversal depth and the file path to retrieve (defaulting to 'boot.ini'). The code handles connection, authentication (anonymous login), command crafting, and file retrieval, storing the exfiltrated data as loot within Metasploit. The attack vector is network-based, requiring access to the target's FTP service. The only file in the repository is a Ruby script structured as a Metasploit module, and no additional files or endpoints are present.
