Package: proftpd Version: 1.3.1-17lenny4 Severity: important It seems that you can force proftp in a denial of service situation. I think it is related to CVE-2010-3867.
Proftpd doesn't seem to be vulnerable to the exploit, most likely since I do not have mod_site_misc module enabled but it does start to eat a lot of cpu time and makes the server unusable. Backporting and upgrading to the latest version in testing fixes this problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
