An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2005-0256 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-0256/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-0256/index.md)","id":"CVE-2005-0256","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-0256/index.md","name":"CVE-2005-0256","record":{"aliases":["DSA-705-1","GHSA-52rf-pfj9-676q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FTP server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause CPU exhaustion and denial of service in wu-ftpd by sending glob patterns with excessive wildcard characters.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"wu-ftpd","vendor":"washington_university"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The wu_fnmatch function in wu_fnmatch.c in wu-ftpd 2.6.1 and 2.6.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU exhaustion by recursion) via a glob pattern with a large number of * (wildcard) characters, as demonstrated using the dir command.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2005-02-25","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2005-02-25","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"842","stars":null,"title":"WU-FTPD 2.6.2 - File Globbing Denial of Service"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0256","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2005"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":16,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0258"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0255"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-02-25","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0185","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-09-01"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0187","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-07"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0080","kev_date_added":null,"published":"1999-09-29"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-1327","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-15"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-1329","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-21"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0955","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-01-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Vulnerability in wu-ftpd 2.6.0, and possibly earlier versions, which is unrelated to the ftpglob bug described in CVE-2001-0550.","id":"CVE-2001-0935","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-02-02"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause CPU exhaustion and denial of service in wu-ftpd by sending glob patterns with excessive wildcard characters.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-0256/"}
