Cisco has released an advisory for their IOS FTP server.
From Cisco:
The Cisco IOS FTP Server feature contains multiple vulnerabilities that can result in a denial of service (DoS) condition, improper verification of user credentials, and the ability to retrieve or write any file from the device filesystem, including the device’s saved configuration. This configuration file may include passwords or other sensitive information.
The IOS FTP Server is an optional service that is disabled by default. Devices that are not specifically configured to enable the IOS FTP Server service are unaffected by these vulnerabilities.
This vulnerability does not apply to the IOS FTP Client feature.
