-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2013-11582 2013-09-15 17:22:14 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : proftpd Product : Fedora EPEL 5 Version : 1.3.3g Release : 3.el5 URL : http://www.proftpd.org/ Summary : Flexible, stable and highly-configurable FTP server Description : ProFTPD is an enhanced FTP server with a focus toward simplicity, security, and ease of configuration. It features a very Apache-like configuration syntax, and a highly customizable server infrastructure, including support for multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory visibility.
This package defaults to the standalone behavior of ProFTPD, but all the needed scripts to have it run by xinetd instead are included.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
This update addresses an issue with mod_sftp and mod_sftp_pam in which a malicious client could cause the server to make extremely large memory requests and potentially crash. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References:
