-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:217-2 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : proftpd Date : January 23, 2007 Affected: Corporate 3.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: A stack-based buffer overflow in the sreplace function in ProFTPD 1.3.0 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, as demonstrated by vd_proftpd.pm, a "ProFTPD remote exploit." (CVE-2006-5815) Buffer overflow in the tls_x509_name_oneline function in the mod_tls module, as used in ProFTPD 1.3.0a and earlier, and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large data length argument, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-5815. (CVE-2006-6170) ProFTPD 1.3.0a and earlier does not properly set the buffer size limit when CommandBufferSize is specified in the configuration file, which leads to an off-by-two buffer underflow. NOTE: in November 2006, the role of CommandBufferSize was originally associated with CVE-2006-5815, but this was an error stemming from an initial vague disclosure. NOTE: ProFTPD developers dispute this issue, saying that the relevant memory location is overwritten by assignment before further use within the affected function, so this is not a vulnerability. (CVE-2006-6171) Packages have been patched to correct these issues. Update: The update for the Corporate 3.0 platforms had a bad patch for CVE-2006-5815, which prevented some clients from being able to use the server. This update corrects this issue. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-5815 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-6170 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-6171 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Corporate 3.0: 98a60448e690842a0afe6cb50925ceeb corporate/3.0/i586/proftpd-1.2.9-3.7.C30mdk.i586.rpm 9aee57777e7d355fa8b730a79f4a58df corporate/3.0/i586/proftpd-anonymous-1.2.9-3.7.C30mdk.i586.rpm 1cf5d2e63700ee924b0346bdd72505d9 corporate/3.0/SRPMS/proftpd-1.2.9-3.7.C30mdk.src.rpm Corporate 3.0/X86_64: a3baa6cdea37f84a99c24b4c3c681ca6 corporate/3.0/x86_64/proftpd-1.2.9-3.7.C30mdk.x86_64.rpm de981e7a4a3eec5371a31079c50d5c17 corporate/3.0/x86_64/proftpd-anonymous-1.2.9-3.7.C30mdk.x86_64.rpm 1cf5d2e63700ee924b0346bdd72505d9 corporate/3.0/SRPMS/proftpd-1.2.9-3.7.C30mdk.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
