- Comments
- Shostack> WFTP is not sufficient; is this wu-, ws-, war-, or another? | Frech> Other have mentioned this before, but it may be WU-FTP. | POSSIBLY XF:ftp-exec; does this have to do with the Site Exec allowing root | access without anon FTP or a regular account? | POSSIBLY XF:wu-ftpd-exec;same as above conditions, but instead from a | non-anon FTP account and gain root privs. | Christey> added MSKB reference | CHANGE> [Christey changed vote from REVOTE to REJECT] | Christey> The MSKB article may have confused things even more. There | were reports of problems in a Windows-based FTP server called | WFTP (http://www.wftpd.com/) that is not a Microsft FTP | server. It"s best to just kill this candidate where it | stands and start fresh.
