Detail
| A buffer overflow has been discovered in ftpd-ssl, a simple BSD FTP server with SSL encryption support, that could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain linux-ftpd-ssl packages. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.17.18+0.3-3sarge1 For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your ftpd-ssl package. |

|---|---|
| 20530 | Linux-ftpd-ssl FTP Server Response Remote Overflow A remote overflow exists in linux-ftpd-ssl. The SSL code fails to validate input to the vsprintf() function resulting in a stack-based buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request which generates more than 2048 bytes of response from the server, a remote attacker can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity. |
