FileCopa is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack due to a lack of proper input validation. By sending a specially crafted USER command with a large number of new line characters, the FTP process can be killed.

Mitigation:

Input validation should be implemented to prevent malicious input from crashing the FTP process.

#
# It appears that FileCopa does not handle alot of new line char
# in the USER login.  This is in the filecpnt.exe file.
# 
# This is only a DOS, that kills the ftp process
