Stack-based buffer overflow in freeSSHd 1.2.1 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (service crash) and potentially execute arbitrary code via a long argument to the (1) rename and (2) realpath parameters.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
