A flaw was found in Python, specifically in the FTP (File Transfer
Protocol) client library in PASV (passive) mode. The issue is how the FTP
client trusts the host from the PASV response by default. This flaw allows
an attacker to set up a malicious FTP server that can trick FTP clients
into connecting back to a given IP address and port. This vulnerability
could lead to FTP client scanning ports, which otherwise would not have
been possible.
