What is CVE-2020-9470?

An issue was identified in Wing FTP Server 6.2.5, where insecure permissions related to session cookies could allow local users to access sensitive session files. This exposure of session and session_admin directories facilitates the potential hijacking of user and administrative sessions, granting unauthorized access to execute Lua commands with root privileges within the administration panel.

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
