Hello all,
in these days I got a strange core dump using the ftp client.
This core dump can only did by using the PUTTY ssh client...

(Tested with putty 0.52)

>root@Wayreth[~]: ftp ftp.unina.it
>Connected to ftp.unina.it.
>220
>Name (ftp.unina.it:root): ^\Quit (core dumped)
>root@Wayreth[~]:

for do that, just push CTRL+รน when the user is requested...

Tested system:
-OpenBSD 3.1
-OpenBSD 3.0
-OpenBSD 2.9
-FreeBSD 4.4-RC5
-FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE
-FreeBSD kalieye 4.6-RC FreeBSD 4.6-RC
-SunOS XXXXX 5.6 Generic_105181-30 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise
-SunOS XXXXX 5.6 Generic_105182-30 i86pc i386 i86pc

Not vulnerable:
-Linux

This bug haven't any security issue, it's only a client and not with the +s flag. In these day I haven't the time to check the source code for see what's is wrong, I will did it in some days...
