Focus on ftpshell vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 16 Apr 2026, 22:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with ftpshell. 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 ftpshell CVEs: 5
Earliest CVE date: 03 Aug 2005, 04:00 UTC
Latest CVE date: 30 Mar 2026, 12:16 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2018-25226
30-day Count (Rolling): 2
365-day Count (Rolling): 2
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: 5.4
Max CVSS: 10.0
Critical CVEs (≥9): 3
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 3 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 1 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 1 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 3 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for ftpshell, sorted by severity first and recency.
FTPShell Server 6.83 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability that allows local attackers to crash the application by supplying an excessively long string in the account name field. Attackers can trigger a denial of service by pasting a 417-byte payload into the 'Account name to ban' parameter within the Manage FTP Accounts interface.
FTP Shell Server 6.83 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in the 'Account name to ban' field that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying a crafted string. Attackers can inject shellcode through the account name parameter in the Manage FTP Accounts dialog to overwrite the return address and execute calc.exe or other commands.
A buffer overflow vulnerability in the Virtual Path Mapping component of FTPShell v6.83 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (DoS).
An issue was discovered in FTPShell Client 6.7. A remote FTP server can send 400 characters of 'F' in conjunction with the FTP 220 response code to crash the application; after this overflow, one can run arbitrary code on the victim machine. This is similar to CVE-2009-3364 and CVE-2017-6465.
Remote Code Execution was discovered in FTPShell Client 6.53. By default, the client sends a PWD command to the FTP server it is connecting to; however, it doesn't check the response's length, leading to a buffer overflow situation.
Stack-based buffer overflow in FTPShell Client 4.1 RC2 allows remote FTP servers to execute arbitrary code via a long response to a PASV command.
Stack-based buffer overflow in FTPShell Server 4.3 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (persistent daemon crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string in a licensing key (aka .key) file.
FTPshell Server 3.38 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (application crash) by multiple connections and disconnections without using the QUIT command.
