Details:
========
A Buffer Overflow vulnerability is detected on BulletProof FTP Client v2010.75.0.76 (current version).  The vulnerability is located
in the main executeable bpftpclient.exe. During the start of the application the value LogFileName from the
registry key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/BulletProof Software/BulletProof FTP Client 2010/Options] is read.
When inserting an oversized value to the registry value a buffer overflow is triggered. The victim only needs to start the application.

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                                   [+]  bpftpclient.exe
