Descriptions
ProFTPD before 1.3.6b and 1.3.7rc before 1.3.7rc2 allows remote unauthenticated denial-of-service due to incorrect handling of overly long commands because main.c in a child process enters an infinite loop.
ProFTPD versiones anteriores a 1.3.6b y versiones 1.3.7rc anteriores a 1.3.7rc2, permite una denegación de servicio remota no autenticada debido al manejo incorrecto de comandos demasiado largos porque el archivo main.c en un proceso secundario entra en un bucle infinito.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in ProFTPd, the worst of which may lead to arbitrary code execution. Versions less than 1.3.6c are affected.
