Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update to proftpd announced via advisory FEDORA-2009-11666. Note: This VT has been deprecated and is therefore no longer functional. Vulnerability Insight: Update Information: This update fixes CVE-2009-3639, in which proftpd's mod_tls, when the dNSNameRequired TLS option is enabled, does not properly handle a '\0' character in a domain name in the Subject Alternative Name field of an X.509 client certificate. This allows remote attackers to bypass intended client-hostname restrictions via a crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority.
