Focus on freeftpd vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 03 Dec 2025, 23:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with freeftpd. We track both calendar-based metrics (using fixed periods) and rolling metrics (using gliding windows) to give you a comprehensive view of security trends and risk evolution. Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total freeftpd CVEs: 2
Earliest CVE date: 19 Nov 2005, 01:03 UTC
Latest CVE date: 31 Jul 2025, 15:15 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2013-10042
30-day Count (Rolling): 0
365-day Count (Rolling): 1
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): 0%
Year Variation (Calendar): 0%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): 0.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): 0.0%
Average CVSS: 6.54
Max CVSS: 10.0
Critical CVEs (≥9): 1
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 1 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 2 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 3 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 1 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for freeftpd, sorted by severity first and recency.
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in freeFTPd version 1.0.10 and earlier in the handling of the FTP PASS command. When an attacker sends a specially crafted password string, the application fails to validate input length, resulting in memory corruption. This can lead to denial of service or arbitrary code execution. Exploitation requires the anonymous user account to be enabled.
freeFTPd 1.0.8 has a Post-Authentication Buffer Overflow via a crafted SIZE command (this is exploitable even if logging is disabled).
freeFTPd.exe in freeFTPd through 1.0.11 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a crafted SFTP session, as demonstrated by an OpenSSH client with modified versions of ssh.c and sshconnect2.c.
Stack-based buffer overflow in (1) WeOnlyDo wodSSHServer ActiveX Component 1.2.7 and 1.3.3 DEMO, as used in other products including (2) FreeSSHd 1.0.9 and (3) freeFTPd 1.0.10, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long key exchange algorithm string.
freeFTPd 1.0.10 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (null dereference and crash) via a PORT command with missing arguments.
Stack-based buffer overflow in freeFTPd before 1.0.9 with Logging enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash), and possibly execute arbitrary code, via a long USER command.
Multiple buffer overflows in freeFTPd 1.0.8, without logging enabled, allow remote authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash), and possibly execute arbitrary code, via long (1) MKD and (2) DELE commands.
