CVE-2002-0600 describes a heap overflow vulnerability in the KTH Kerberos 4 FTP client (versions 4-1.1.1 and earlier), as well as related products like lukemftp. This flaw allows a remote, malicious FTP server to execute arbitrary code on a client system by sending an excessively long response to a passive mode (PASV) request. With a CVSS score of 7.5, this vulnerability is considered high severity, requiring no authentication and having a low attack complexity, potentially leading to partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise. While the vulnerability is old, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
