Severity: important
Tags: security
Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for linux-ftpd-ssl.
CVE-2007-6263[0]:
| The dataconn function in ftpd.c in netkit ftpd (netkit-ftpd) 0.17,
| when certain modifications to support SSL have been introduced, calls
| fclose on an uninitialized file stream, which allows remote attackers
| to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) and possibly have
| unspecified other impact via some types of FTP over SSL protocol
| behavior, as demonstrated by breaking a passive FTP DATA connection in
| a way that triggers an error in the server's SSL_accept function.
| NOTE: the netkit ftp issue is covered by CVE-2007-5769.
If you fix this vulnerability please also include the CVE id
in your changelog entry.
For further information:

Kind regards
