> DESCRIPTION:
> Evgeny Legerov has reported a vulnerability in the mod_tls module for
> ProFTPD, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to
> compromise a vulnerable system.
>
> The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the
> "tls_x509_name_oneline()" function in contrib/mod_tls.c. This can be
> exploited to cause a buffer overflow by sending specially crafted
> data to a server.
>
> Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code, but
> requires that ProFTPD uses the mod_tls module.
>
> The vulnerability is reported in version 1.3.0a. Other versions may
> also be affected.
>
> SOLUTION:
> Restrict access to trusted people only.
