--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2003-034 2003-12-15 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : lftp Version : 2.6.10 Release : 1 Summary : A sophisticated file transfer program Description : LFTP is a sophisticated ftp/http file transfer program. Like bash, it has job control and uses the readline library for input. It has bookmarks, built-in mirroring, and can transfer several files in parallel. It is designed with reliability in mind. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Ulf Härnhammar found a remotely-triggerable buffer overflow in lftp. An attacker could create a carefully crafted directory on a website such that, if a user connects to that directory using the lftp client and subsequently issues a 'ls' or 'rels' command, the attacker could execute arbitrary code on the users machine. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0963 to this issue. Users of lftp are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages, which upgrade lftp to a version which is not vulnerable to this issue. Red Hat would like to thank Ulf Härnhammar for discovering and alerting us to this issue. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
