Package: proftpd
Version: 1.2.10-15sarge4
Severity: grave

I have proftpd installed on one of our production server. It seems like
any user registered with the system can initiate a ftp session whether
he correctly enters his password. I've been investigating this for a
while without finding any explanation. Here is /etc/pam.d/proftd:

#%PAM-1.0
auth       required     pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny file=/etc/ftpusers
onerr=succeed
@include common-auth

# This is disabled because anonymous logins will fail otherwise,
# unless you give the 'ftp' user a valid shell, or /bin/false and add
# /bin/false to /etc/shells.
auth       required     pam_shells.so


and /etc/pam.d/common-auth:

auth    sufficient      pam_unix.so nullok_secure
auth    sufficient    pam_ldap.so try_first_pass


Would that explain why a registered unix user can initiate a session
without providing any password ?

Greetings,

Eric.
