	1. DESCRIPTION
	======================================================================

	built right into it." (direct quote from http://www.html-helper.com)
	
	2. DETAILS
	======================================================================
	
	? Remote DoS :
	A security vulnerability in EZ FTP server  allows  remote  attackers  to
	cause the server to crash by executing a specific  command  (ls  and  cd
	command) with a buffer of 1994 or 1995 bytes in length or more.
	The command  can  be  issued  to  the  FTP  server  either  by  a  valid
	authenticated user or by the anonymous account (if this is enabled).
