VAR-200812-0135
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 22:56Ipswitch WS_FTP Server Manager 6.1.0.0 and earlier, and possibly other Ipswitch products, might allow remote attackers to read the contents of custom ASP files in WSFTPSVR/ via a request with an appended dot character. WS_FTP Server Manager is prone to an authentication-bypass vulnerability and an information-disclosure vulnerability. An attacker can exploit these issues to gain unauthorized access to the affected application and gain access to potentially sensitive information. These issues affect WS_FTP Server Manager 6.1.0.0; prior versions may also be affected. Ipswitch WS_FTP Server is a highly secure and easy-to-manage file transfer server

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
