What is CVE-2000-0640?

Guild FTPd contains a vulnerability that permits remote attackers to exploit a directory traversal weakness. By using a '..' (dot dot) attack, an attacker can ascertain the existence of files located outside of the FTP server's root directory. This is accomplished by manipulating the path structure, resulting in different server responses based on whether the requested file exists or not. Such information exposure can lead to further attacks and should be mitigated to secure sensitive files against unauthorized access.
