DESCRIPTION:
kcope has discovered a vulnerability in wzdftpd, which can be
exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to the lack of sanitisation of SITE
command parameters before passing them as command line arguments to
custom SITE command handling scripts. This can be exploited to inject
arbitrary shell commands using the "|" or ";" characters.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 0.5.4. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Grant SITE commands only to trusted users.
