+Description:
+ It was reported that ProFTPd [1] version before 1.3.0rc2 suffer from
+ two format string vulnerabilities. In the first, a user with the
+ ability to create a directory could trigger the format string error
+ if there is a ProFTPd shutdown message configured to use the "%C",
+ "%R", or "%U" variables. In the second, the error is triggered if the
+ ProFTPd extension mod_sql is used to retrieve messages from a database
+ and if format strings have been inserted into the database by a user
+ with permission to do so. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
+ (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2005-2390 [2] to the problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/openpkg
+ rpm -q proftpd". If you have the "proftpd" package installed and its
+ version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately
+ upgrade it (see Solution) [3][4].
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
+ binary RPM [4]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.4, perform the
+ following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
+ other releases adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/2.4/UPD
+ ftp> get proftpd-1.3.0rc1-2.4.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig proftpd-1.3.0rc1-2.4.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild proftpd-1.3.0rc1-2.4.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh
<prefix>/RPM/PKG/proftpd-1.3.0rc1-2.4.1.*.rpm
