Description:
Two vulnerabilities has been identified in FlashFXP allowing malicious servers to gain access to the client running FlashFXP.

One problem is that FlashFXP doesn't handle the response to the "PASV" from the server correctly. This allows malicious servers to cause a buffer overflow by sending a too long reply.

The other problem is that FlashFXP doesn't handle long host names correctly. This will cause a buffer overflow if FlashFXP is set to handle a request with a long hostname.

These vulnerabilities have been reported for versions prior to 2.1.923

Solution:
Latest version 2.1.924 has been reported not to be vulnerable.
