# CVE-2011-2523 — vsFTPd 2.3.4 Backdoor Exploit

This repository contains a Python-based exploit targeting a **maliciously backdoored** version of `vsFTPd 2.3.4`. Unlike traditional vulnerabilities, this backdoor was introduced by an unauthorized modification of the official binary hosted on the vsFTPd site in 2011.

## 🧠 Vulnerability Overview

- The compromised binary listens on port **6200** after receiving a specially crafted username.
- Triggering the backdoor spawns a remote shell with **root privileges**.
- The exploit is only effective against the **backdoored binary**, not against legitimate versions of vsFTPd.

## ⚙️ Requirements

Ensure the following dependencies are installed:

```bash
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3
```
## 📦 Installation

```bash
git clone https://github.com/BolivarJ/CVE-2011-2523.git
cd CVE-2011-2523
chmod +x exploit.py
```

## 🚀 Usage

```bash
python3 exploit.py <TARGET_IP>
```
