exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling
filenames received from the LIST, DELE, and RNFR commands. This can
be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and execute
arbitrary code via an overly long filename.

versions may also be affected.
