Description
The issue is a stack-based buffer overflow that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. This is achieved by sending a long string in the
UserID parameter to the "vfolder.ghp" endpoint.Recommendations
For Easy File Sharing (EFS) Web Server version 6.8, consider restricting access to the "vfolder.ghp" endpoint until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using long strings in the
UserID parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
