Error in FTP Logs

We have recently seen may FAIL DELETE / FAIL RENAME status in the logs. The one of the examples is below. I would appreciate your advice in this ;

Node-1:  /var/log/vsftpd.log.0.gz:Fri Mar 10 10:08:56 2017 [pid 35453] [ftp_account] FAIL RENAME: Client "::ffff:198.241.19.172", "/mobiledoc\Patients\3341720170310100823.jpg"

Seems like the "\" characters are *meant* as directory separators, and not part of the file name.

But ftp (like NFS, and unlike SMB) only accepts "/" as directory separators,

so any client application will need to take this into account.
