proftpd

Yes

Security database references:

In the Debian bugtracking system: Bug 399070.
In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2006-5815, CVE-2006-6170, CVE-2006-6171.

More information:

Due to technical problems yesterday's proftpd update lacked a build for the amd64 architecture, which is now available. For reference please find below the original advisory text:

Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the proftpd FTP daemon, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary code or denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

• CVE-2006-5815

  It was discovered that a buffer overflow in the sreplace() function may lead to denial of service and possibly the execution of arbitrary code.

• CVE-2006-6170

  It was discovered that a buffer overflow in the mod_tls addon module may lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

• CVE-2006-6171

  It was discovered that insufficient validation of FTP command buffer size limits may lead to denial of service. Due to unclear information this issue was already fixed in DSA-1218 as CVE-2006-5815.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 1.2.10-15sarge3.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 1.3.0-16 of the proftpd-dfsg package.

We recommend that you upgrade your proftpd package.

Fixed in:

Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 (sarge)
