Hi all, I recently received a bug report (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2166454) about proftpd not being able to load a dynamic module (mod_rewrite) that provides some optional functionality. This module is not used by default and has to be enabled manually. The ticket was raised for EPEL-9 but I can reproduce the issue on my Fedora 37 machine.
I raised the issue upstream (https://github.com/proftpd/proftpd/issues/1590) and after some experimentation, it appears that turning off hardened build (by undefining _hardened_build) results in a build that can load the module. I can also add -fstack-protector-strong back into optflags without it breaking. Various other of proftpd's optional modules work OK regardless of the hardened build state. The hardened build has been enabled in proftpd for a long time so I don't know if it's recently stopped working or nobody ever used mod_rewrite with the packaged builds. Any ideas why this should be happening? I'd really rather not disable the hardened build for a complex internet-facing server like proftpd.
