Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:018
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : gftp
Date : January 21, 2008
Affected: 2007.1
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Kalle Olavi Niemitalo found two boundary errors in the fsplib library,
a copy of which is included in gFTP source. A remote attacer could
trigger these vulnerabilities by enticing a user to download a file
with a specially crafted directory or file name, possibly resulting in
the execution of arbitrary code (CVE-2007-3962) or a denial of service
(CVE-2007-3961).
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
