Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:217
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : proftpd
Date : November 20, 2006
Affected: 2006.0, 2007.0, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

As disclosed by an exploit (vd_proftpd.pm) and a related vendor bugfix,
a Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the FTP server
ProFTPD, up to and including version 1.3.0. The flaw is due to both a
potential bus error and a definitive buffer overflow in the code which
determines the FTP command buffer size limit. The vulnerability can be
exploited only if the "CommandBufferSize" directive is explicitly used
in the server configuration, which is not the case in the default
configuration of ProFTPD.

Packages have been patched to correct these issues.
