Description

AmmSoft's ScriptFTP client is susceptible to a remote buffer overflow
vulnerability that is triggered when processing a sufficiently long
filename during a FTP LIST command resulting in overwriting the
exception handler. Social engineering of executing a specially crafted
ftp file by double click will result in connecting to our malicious
server and perform arbitrary code execution which allows the attacker to
gain the same rights as the user running ScriptFTP. This vulnerability
affects versions 3.3 and earlier.
