Hi,

Nico Golde suggested I prepare a package of linux-ftpd-ssl for a
stable point release, fixing CVE-2008-4247, as it doesn't warrant
a DSA.

SRMs, is the patch below OK?

Are DMs allowed to upload to stable? If not, can someone sponsor the upload,
package at:

http://erislabs.net/ianb/debian/linux-ftpd-ssl_0.17.18+0.3-6etch1.dsc

thanks,

Ian
