NWFTPD.nlm before 5.04.25 in the FTP server in Novell NetWare does not promptly close DS sessions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection slot exhaustion) by establishing many FTP sessions that persist for the lifetime of a DS session.
Weaknesses in this category are related to the management of permissions, privileges, and other security features that are used to perform access control.
