checks if the remote FTP server has any world writeable dirs Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment It is usually a bad idea to have world writeable directories in a public FTP server, since it may permit anyone to use the FTP server as a 'warez' server (this means that the FTP server will be used to exchange non-free software between software pirates). It may also permit anyone to make a denial of service by filling up the FTP server filesystem Network Security Threat Level: Medium Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: this plugin is distributed under the GPL |
