DLA 1753-2: proftpd-dfsg regression update




Package : proftpd-dfsg
Version : 1.3.5e+r1.3.5-2+deb8u1
CVE ID : not available
Debian Bug : 923926 926719

The update of proftpd-dfsg issued as DLA-1753-1 caused a regression
when using the sftp module. Login to the sftp server was impossible
when the SFTPPAMEngine option was turned on (#926719).

This update reverts to upstream version 1.3.5 again since even the
latest upstream release 1.3.6 is still affected by different sftp
related bugs (#927270). All fixes for the memory leaks were backported
separately now.

For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version
1.3.5e+r1.3.5-2+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your proftpd-dfsg packages.
