10月28日，一份公开的邮件中曝出FTP远程执行命令漏洞，漏洞影响到的Linux系统包括：Fedora, Debian, NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, 甚至影响到了苹果的OS X操作系统的最新版本Yosemite 10.10。
NetBSD的一位开发人员(Jared McNeill)证实了这个漏洞可已通过tnftp让WEB服务器远程执行恶意命令，并且此漏洞已被编号为CVE-2014-8517 ：

漏洞影响范围及公告
Debian, Red Hat, Gentoo, Novell (SUSE Linux), DragonFly, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Apple等系统开发商已经意识到了此漏洞的危害，其中Debian, Red Hat, Gnetoo and Novell已经发出了漏洞公告：
漏洞检测脚本（请勿用于非法用途）
#!/usr/bin/env python """
Sample OSX/BSD FTP client exploit. Written because ISO policies were doing
my head in. To exploit, edit the value of the cmd variable, then run the
script. To test:
ftp <myserver>/foo
And you should see the command executed.
