CVE-2024-1190

Local service interruption via connection field manipulation

Published Feb 2, 2024 · Updated Jun 17, 2025

Improper resource shutdown in Globalscape CuteFTP 9.3.0.3 allows local users to interrupt the client through connection fields. The CNA identifies the Host, Username, and Password arguments as triggers but does not disclose the affected function or incorrectly released resource. Low-privileged local access is required; the consequence is limited to availability, and the record does not distinguish a crash from a hang.
