| Title: | DSA-2305-1 vsftpd -- denial of service | ||
| Description: | Two security issue have been discovered that affect vsftpd, a lightweight, efficient FTP server written for security. CVE-2011-2189 It was discovered that Linux kernels less than 2.6.35 are considerably slower in releasing than in the creation of network namespaces. As a result of this and because vsftpd is using this feature as a security enhancement to provide network isolation for connections, it is possible to cause denial of service conditions due to excessive memory allocations by the kernel. This is technically no vsftpd flaw, but a kernel issue. However, this feature has legitimate use cases and backporting the specific kernel patch is too intrusive. Additionally, a local attacker requires the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability to abuse this functionality. Therefore, as a fix, a kernel version check has been added to vsftpd in order to disable this feature for kernels less than 2.6.35. CVE-2011-0762 Maksymilian Arciemowicz discovered that vsftpd is incorrectly handling certain glob expressions in STAT commands. This allows a remote authenticated attacker to conduct denial of service attacks via crafted STAT commands. | ||
