Synopsis
========

Version 1.2.9 of ProFTPD introduced a vulnerability that causes
CIDR-based Access Control Lists (ACLs) to be treated as "AllowAll",
thereby allowing remote users full access to files available to the
FTP daemon.

Background
==========

ProFTPD is an FTP daemon.

Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package          /   Vulnerable   /                    Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  net-ftp/proftpd      == 1.2.9-r1                      >= 1.2.9-r2
  1  net-ftp/proftpd      == 1.2.9                         >= 1.2.9-r2

Description
===========

ProFTPD 1.2.9 introduced a vulnerability that allows CIDR-based ACLs
(such as 10.0.0.1/24) to be bypassed. The CIDR ACLs are disregarded,
with the net effect being similar to an "AllowAll" directive.

Impact
======

This vulnerability may allow unauthorized files, including critical
system files to be downloaded and/or modified, thereby allowing a
potential remote compromise of the server.

Workaround
==========

Users may work around the problem by avoiding use of CIDR-based ACLs.

Resolution
==========

ProFTPD users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version of the
package:

    # emerge sync

    # emerge -pv ">=net-ftp/proftpd-1.2.9-r2"
    # emerge ">=net-ftp/proftpd-1.2.9-r2"
