Fedora EPEL Update Notification
FEDORA-EPEL-2016-bafacd5846
2016-07-02 13:21:42.614601
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : proftpd
Product : Fedora EPEL 5
Version : 1.3.3g
Release : 6.el5
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 fixes issues with selection of inappropriate DH parameters, which
could lead to encrypted traffic being more easily decrypted than it should be.

adds support for specifying TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2, and fixes an SUID/SGID
directory permission setting regression introduced with an earlier update
addressing CVE-2012-6095.
