Package: vsftpd
Version: 2.3.4-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hardening options is a proposed release goal for Wheezy [1].
vsftpd is a FTP daemon aiming at security, so having its package
compiled with the hardening options seems really like a
good idea.
I have rebuilt the package with hardening options enabled and there was
no error (during build, or at runtime). Since you are already using dh,
the only required patch is
echo -n 9 > debian/compat
and the package will use dpkg-buildflags, which in turn enable the
hardening options. Note that PIE and bindnow are not enabled by default.
This can be done using:
DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS = hardening=+pie,+bindnow
in the debian/rules file.
You can control and enable/disable each hardening flag independantly, see
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2011/09/msg00001.html
for details.
Thanks,
Pierre
