Name : proftpd Product : Fedora EPEL 6 Version : 1.3.3g Release : 11.el6 URL : http://www.proftpd.org/ Summary : Flexible, stable and highly-configurable FTP server Description : ProFTPD is an enhanced FTP server with a focus toward simplicity, security, and ease of configuration. It features a very Apache-like configuration syntax, and a highly customizable server infrastructure, including support for multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory visibility.
This package defaults to the standalone behavior of ProFTPD, but all the needed scripts to have it run by xinetd instead are included.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
This update addresses a pre-authentication remote denial of service issue (https://github.com/proftpd/proftpd/issues/846). The fix is a backport of the one in upstream git for current proftpd versions. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References:
