- CVEs with nessus.description==According to its banner, the version of the HP-UX FTP server running on the remote host is at a patch level before PHNE_38458. Such versions reportedly contain a vulnerability that in certain account configurations could be exploited by an anonymous remote attacker to gain privileged access.
Note that successful exploitation requires that pam is used for authenticating FTP users and that pam authentication passes when a user tries to log in while getpwnam returns NULL. This could occur, for example, if LDAP is used for pam authentication, the nsswitch.conf file does not include 'ldap' as a source for the 'passwd' database, and the attacker tries to log in with a username included in the LDAP directory.
