Subject: /Claimed/ remote root exploit in Pureftpd

This is someone I know in IRC, and usually does not claim random stuff.
I have no further information other than this claim currently, but a
code audit might be in order.

[ I have not found a security contact on the pureftpd.org page, except
for their mailing list, so am sending it there ].

IRC log follows:

<dilema> Linux/x86 PureFTPD remote exploit.

<dilema> actually
<dilema> i have tons of sploits
<dilema> i'll throw some on http when i sort through them and make sure
not to step on any ones toes by doing so
<f3ew|sleep> send the exploit to the pureftpd maintainer
<dilema> i'll play with it for a few days. I'm just pissed cause i
really like pure and i don't feel like setting up pro
<dilema> which is one reason why i am hesitant to give it out

[ Exploit claimed to be zero day and in the wild, so I am sending an
announcement here as a heads up, hopefuly we can get a quick fix ].
