The Personal FTP Server 6.0f RETR Denial of Service Exploit

/*
*** The Personal FTP Server 6.0f RETR DOS exploit *** A vulnerability exists in the way Personal FTP Server handles
multiple RETR commands with overly long filenames.When confronted
with such consecutive requests the server will crash. Usage : ./pftpdos ip port user password
Ex. : ./pftpdos 127.0.0.1 21 test test Personal FTP Server homepage: http://www.michael-roth-software.de/ Discovey POC by Shinnok raydenxy [at] yahoo <dot> com
