CVE-2004-1992 describes a buffer overflow vulnerability in Serv-U FTP server versions prior to 5.0.0.6. This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to trigger a denial of service (server crash) by supplying an excessively long parameter to the LIST command, leading to an out-of-bounds read. With a CVSS score of 5.0 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P), this vulnerability is easily exploitable over the network with low attack complexity, resulting in a loss of availability. While not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, public exploit code exists on ExploitDB, indicating its potential for exploitation. Despite this, there is no evidence of active exploitation, and it has received minimal community discussion or media coverage.
