CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

PACKAGE : lftp
SUMMARY : Buffer overflow vulnerability
DATE : 2004-01-06 09:46:00
ID : CLA-2004:800
RELEVANT
RELEASES : 8, 9

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION
 lftp[1] is a command-line file transfer program which supports many
 protocols.
 
 Ulf Härnhammar reported[2] two buffer overflow vulnerabilities[3] in
 the lftp program. An attacker could prepare a directory on a server
 which, if accessed with a vulnerable lftp with the "ls" or "rels"
 command, could cause arbitrary code to be executed on the client.

SOLUTION
 It is recommended that all lftp users upgrade their packages.
