CVE-2017-7418 -- proftpd-devID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:1900396 | Date: (C)2019-02-28 (M)2023-12-20 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: unix |
ProFTPD before 1.3.5e and 1.3.6 before 1.3.6rc5 controls whether the home directory of a user could contain a symbolic link through the AllowChrootSymlinks configuration option, but checks only the last path component when enforcing AllowChrootSymlinks. Attackers with local access could bypass the AllowChrootSymlinks control by replacing a path component with a symbolic link. The threat model includes an attacker who is not granted full filesystem access by a hosting provider, but can reconfigure the home directory of an FTP user.
