Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FTP project through 96c1a35

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service due to memory consumption by engaging in client activity, such as establishing and then terminating a connection. This occurs because malloc is used but free is not.

Recommendations For the FTP project through 96c1a35, consider implementing proper memory deallocation using free to prevent memory consumption issues. As a temporary workaround, restrict the number of client connections to minimize the risk of exploitation.
