High

Base vector

AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions wu-ftpd versions 2.6.2 and earlier

Description The issue allows local users to bypass access restrictions by changing the permissions to prevent access to their home directory. As a result, wu-ftpd uses the root directory instead, potentially leading to unauthorized access.

Recommendations For wu-ftpd versions 2.6.2 and earlier, consider disabling the restricted-gid option as a temporary workaround to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to sensitive directories to minimize the risk of unauthorized access.
