This one is very simple......

1. Every FTP Server running in the target gets the same result when we
perform vulnerability assessment.

  This means that when an FTP (a Plain text protocol) transaction is done,
intruders can sniff it / hijack sessions. So, we need to use secure protocol
for the same functionaly .

2. FTP Server is running. It means an Intruder can get the fingerprint
(banner) of the Software running
  By knowing so, the intruder can search for available exploits and get the
control.

  So, solution would be to customize the response given by the FTP Server.

Ex:  c:\> telnet 192.168.100.1 21

The above command gives u the fingerprint of the server.

Above both are minimal security issues.  Further you can raise 1 post for
each vulnerability verification, which makes clear understanding.
