DESCRIPTION:
Krystian Kloskowski has discovered a vulnerability in FlashGet, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing
of FTP PWD responses. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based
buffer overflow by tricking a user into connecting to a malicious FTP
server.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.9.0.1012. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not connect to untrusted FTP servers.
