+Package: proftpd
+Vulnerability: arbitrary code execution
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= proftpd-1.2.9rc2-20030911 >= proftpd-1.2.9rc2-20030923
+OpenPKG 1.3 <= proftpd-1.2.8-1.3.0 >= proftpd-1.2.8-1.3.1
+OpenPKG 1.2 <= proftpd-1.2.7-1.2.0 >= proftpd-1.2.7-1.2.1
+
+Dependent Packages: none
+
+Description:
+ According to a ISS X-Force security advisory [0] a vulnerability
+ exists in the ProFTPD server [1]. It can be triggered by remote
+ attackers when transferring files from the FTP server in ASCII mode.
+ The attacker must have the ability to upload a file to the server, and
+ then attempt to download the same file to trigger the vulnerability.
+ During ASCII transfer, file data is examined in 1024 byte chunks
+ to check for newline characters. The translation of these newline
+ characters is not handled correctly, and a buffer overflow can
+ manifest if ProFTPD parses a specially crafted file.
+
+ Note that the OpenPKG 20030923 version of the proftpd package contains
+ the vendor version 1.2.9rc2p, also the trailing 'p' was omitted from
+ the package filename.
+
+ The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
+ CAN-FIXME [2] to the problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm
+ -q proftpd". If you have the "proftpd" package installed and its version
+ is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade
+ it (see Solution) and it's dependent packages (see above), if any,
+ too. [3][4]
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary
+ RPM [4]. For the current release OpenPKG 1.3, perform the following
+ operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases
+ adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/1.3/UPD
+ ftp> get proftpd-1.2.8-1.3.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig proftpd-1.2.8-1.3.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild proftpd-1.2.8-1.3.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/proftpd-1.2.8-1.3.1.*.rpm
+
+ Additionally, we recommend that you rebuild and reinstall
+ all dependent packages (see above), if any, too. [3][4]
