-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-5033 2011-04-08 22:59:32 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : proftpd Product : Fedora 13 Version : 1.3.3e Release : 1.fc13 URL : http://www.proftpd.org/ Summary : Flexible, stable and highly-configurable FTP server Description : ProFTPD is an enhanced FTP server with a focus toward simplicity, security, and ease of configuration. It features a very Apache-like configuration syntax, and a highly customizable server infrastructure, including support for multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory visibility. This package defaults to the standalone behavior of ProFTPD, but all the needed scripts to have it run by xinetd instead are included. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update, to the current upstream maintenance release, fixes a large number of bugs (see NEWS for details), and also a couple of security issues: * Plaintext command injection vulnerability in FTPS implementation (i.e. mod_tls). See http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3624 for details. * CVE-2011-1137 (badly formed SSH messages cause DoS). See http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3586 for details.
