Quoted from wu-ftpd group's accouncement: Due to insufficient bounds checking on directory name lengths which can be supplied by users, it is possible to overwrite the static memory space of the wu-ftpd daemon while it is executing under certain configurations. By having the ability to create directories and supplying carefully designed directory names to the wu-ftpd, users may gain privileged access.
