This structure holds all the attributes related to the command that is
going to be run on the server. Let's check the values of its members:
gef➤ p *cmd
$82 = {
pool = 0x5555556e0440,
server = 0x55555568ad28,
config = 0x5555556e0440,
tmp_pool = 0x0,
argc = 0x2,
arg = 0x5555556b9a98 "CCCwwwwww",
argv = 0x5555556b9ab8,
group = 0x0,
cmd_class = 0x67f,
stash_index = 0x14,
stash_hash = 0x3b7b88c,
notes = 0x5555556b9c28,
cmd_id = 0xffffffff,
is_ftp = 0x1,
protocol = 0x55555563c35f "FTP"
}
gef➤ p cmd
$82 = (cmd_rec *) 0x5555556b99f8
The array cmd->argv[] holds a pointer to our command. cmd->argv[0] holds
the command and cmd->argv[1] the arguments/parameters:
gef➤ x/s cmd->argv[0]
0x5555556b9a90: "3333"
gef➤ x/s cmd->argv[1]
0x5555556b9aa8: "CCCwwwwww"
This is defined in src/cmd.c at pr_cmd_alloc() function.
ProFTPd keeps a global variable called "session", which is responsible for
storing every attribute related to the current FTP session. The member
session.curr_cmd_rec holds a pointer to the current command being executed
in that FTP session. This is exactly the same value of cmd pointer in
_dispatch():
gef➤ p cmd
$82 = (cmd_rec *) 0x5555556b99f8
gef➤ p session.curr_cmd_rec
$83 = (struct cmd_struc *) 0x5555556b99f8
In addition, cmd has cmd->notes member that holds a pointer to a variable
of type struct table_rec (see src/table.c for more information).
Giving a couple of steps back, you may have noticed that when a breakpoint
is hit in pool.c:569, we are always pointing p->sub_next to some valid
address. This is because otherwise we would have a crash on sstrncpy()
like the one below:
$rax : 0x34
$rbx : 0x4343434343434344 ("DCCCCCCC"?)
