The vulnerabilities are caused due to input validation errors when processing responses to the FTP LIST and the WebDAV PROPFIND commands. This can be exploited to download files to an arbitrary location on a user's system via directory traversal specifiers in the filename. Successful exploitation requires that the user is tricked into connecting and downloading a directory from a malicious FTP or WebDAV server. The vulnerabilities are reported in version 2.9.3. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Reportedly, the vulnerabilities will be fixed in an upcoming version 3.0. Do not connect to untrusted FTP or WebDAV servers.
