High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Vulnerability in inc.login.php in PHPsFTPd versions 0.2 through 0.4 allows a remote attacker to bypass the login mechanism and obtain the administrator's username and password by setting the do_login parameter and performing an edit action using user.php, which causes the password to leak in the response.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can gain full control over the FTP server by obtaining administrator credentials, leading to a breach of data confidentiality and integrity.

Recommendation

Immediately upgrade PHPsFTPd to a version newer than 0.4 or apply a security patch if available. If no update is available, restrict access to the administrative interface using a firewall or access control lists.
