Vulnerability title: Local Code Execution in CoreFTP Core FTP Server CVE: CVE-2014-1215 Vendor: CoreFTP Product: Core FTP Server Affected version: v1.2 build 505 Fixed version: v1.2 build 508 Reported by: Kyriakos Economou Details: Core FTP Server v1.2 build 505 (latest version) and possibly earlier versions, suffer from multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities, when reading data from the config.dat file and/or Windows Registry using the lstrcpy and RegQueryValueEx functions without evaluating the size of the data based on the size of the destination buffer, which can lead to arbitrary code execution. It is recommended to revise all code locations where the application makes use of those functions.
