*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***
Public security bug reported:
Binary package hint: vsftpd
There is a bug in vsftpd daemon, which causes the system to skip asking
for a password if the username is invalid. This enables a remote user to
determine whether the enter user account names are valid or not. The bug
occurs when the user whitelisting facility is being used.
** Affects: vsftpd (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Visibility changed to: Public
