Category:	Slackware Local Security Checks
Title:	Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2010-357-02)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'proftpd' package(s) announced via the SSA:2010-357-02 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'proftpd' package(s) announced via the SSA:2010-357-02 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New proftpd packages are available for Slackware 11.0, 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, 13.0, 13.1, and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/proftpd-1.3.3d-i486-1_slack13.1.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes an unbounded copy operation in sql_prepare_where() that could be exploited to execute arbitrary code. However, this only affects servers that use the sql_mod module (which Slackware does not ship), and in addition the ability to exploit this depends on an SQL injection bug that was already fixed in proftpd-1.3.2rc2 (this according to upstream). So in theory, this fix should only be of academic interest. But in practice, better safe than sorry. (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Affected Software/OS: 'proftpd' package(s) on Slackware 11.0, Slackware 12.0, Slackware 12.1, Slackware 12.2, Slackware 13.0, Slackware 13.1, Slackware current. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
