And did you email the vendor first?

mailto:bugs () texis com

It's listed on his page you know... and have you given them a chance to 
fix it or are you "too lazy" to give a vendor a chance to fix things 
first before you full-disclosure them?

There are some vendors that yeah.. it's hard to argue that they've not 
been given enough time to fix things...but may I ask you.... did you 
email the vendor first?  At least try to contact them?

In full disclosure, I know him and I've never ever seen him not be 
responsive and jump on a bug report...next time dude.... email is quite 
effective in contacting vendors... especially ones that are responsive, 
if a spam filter swallowed it up ... that's something that we're all 
having to unfortunately deal with these days... and I'll apologize if 
you did try to contact him.  But as I said, historically speaking he's 
always been very responsive.  (as someone said to me the spammers are 
hiring better coders these days...)

WFTPD Pro Server 3.23 Buffer Overflow
-------------------------------------

A buffer overflow was found in the APPE command when
passing (as first) a long string
with slashes and/or backslashes. The exploit is
clearly exploitable as overwritting EIP
is quite easy but I'm too lazy...

Attached goes an (unfinished) POC.
