+ ProFTPD is a configurable GPL-licensed FTP server software. +

+
+ +

"infamous42md" reported that ProFTPD is vulnerable to format + string vulnerabilities when displaying a shutdown message containing + the name of the current directory, and when displaying response + messages to the client using information retrieved from a database + using mod_sql. +

+
+ +

+ A remote attacker could create a directory with a malicious name + that would trigger the format string issue if specific variables are + used in the shutdown message, potentially resulting in a Denial of + Service or the execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user + running the ProFTPD server. An attacker with control over the database + contents could achieve the same result by introducing malicious + messages that would trigger the other format string issue when used in + server responses. +

+
+ +

+ Do not use the "%C", "%R", or "%U" in shutdown messages, and do + not set the "SQLShowInfo" directive. +

+
+ +

+ All ProFTPD users should upgrade to the latest version: +

+ + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-ftp/proftpd-1.2.10-r7" +
