This signature detects attempts to exploit a remote FTP server. Attacker can send malformed characters as FTP commands. A successful attack can lead to arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the server or denial of service condition.
GlobalSCAPE Secure FTP Server is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. Exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of the vulnerable server.
