2005-05-02 CVE-2005-0256 Improper Restriction of Operations Within the Bounds of A Memory Buffer vulnerability in Washington University Wu-Ftpd 2.6.1/2.6.2
The wu_fnmatch function in wu_fnmatch.c in wu-ftpd 2.6.1 and 2.6.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU exhaustion by recursion) via a glob pattern with a large number of * (wildcard) characters, as demonstrated using the dir command.

2003-12-31 CVE-2003-1327 Remote Stack-based Buffer Overrun vulnerability in Wu-Ftpd SockPrintf()
Buffer overflow in the SockPrintf function in wu-ftpd 2.6.2 and earlier, when compiled with MAIL_ADMIN option enabled on a system that supports very long pathnames, might allow remote anonymous users to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with a long pathname, which triggers the overflow when wu-ftpd constructs a notification message to the administrator.
