ProFTPD is a powerful, configurable, and free FTP daemon.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A flaw exists in the mod_ctrls module of ProFTPD, normally used to
|
|
allow FTP server administrators to configure the daemon at runtime.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An FTP server administrator permitted to interact with mod_ctrls could
|
|
potentially compromise the ProFTPD process and execute arbitrary code
|
|
with the privileges of the FTP Daemon, which is normally the root user.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Disable mod_ctrls, or ensure only trusted users can access this
|
|
feature.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All ProFTPD users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-ftp/proftpd-1.3.1_rc1"</code>
