CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in sitenfo.sh, sitezipchk.sh, and siteziplist.sh in Glftpd 1.26 to 2.00 allow remote authenticated users to (1) determine the existence of arbitrary files, (2) list files in restricted directories, or (3) read arbitrary files from within ZIP or gzip files, via .. (dot dot) sequences and globbing ("*") characters in a SITE NFO command.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2005-0483 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
