Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:232
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : proftpd
Date : December 18, 2006
Affected: 2007.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Stack-based buffer overflow in the pr_ctrls_recv_request function in
ctrls.c in the mod_ctrls module in ProFTPD before 1.3.1rc1 allows local
users to execute arbitrary code via a large reqarglen length value.

Packages have been patched to correct these issues.
