    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1730-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Steffen Joeris
    March 02, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : proftpd-dfsg
    Vulnerability : SQL injection vulnerabilites
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id : CVE-2009-0542 CVE-2009-0543

    The security update for proftpd-dfsg in DSA-1727-1 caused a regression
    with the postgresql backend. This update corrects the flaw. Also it was discovered that the oldstable distribution (etch) is not affected by the security issues. For reference the original advisory follows.


    Two SQL injection vulnerabilities have been found in proftpd, a
    virtual-hosting FTP daemon. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
    project identifies the following problems:

    CVE-2009-0542

    Shino discovered that proftpd is prone to an SQL injection vulnerability
    via the use of certain characters in the username.


    CVE-2009-0543

    TJ Saunders discovered that proftpd is prone to an SQL injection
    vulnerability due to insufficient escaping mechanisms, when multybite
    character encodings are used.


    For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.3.1-17lenny2.

    The oldstable distribution (etch) is not affected by these problems.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.3.2-1.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze), these problems will be fixed
    soon.
