The person who posted the note regarding pre6 on BugTraq has already communicated the necessary information to MacGyver, and the code has already been fixed in the CVS repository. I expect that pre7 should be available within the next day or two. At that time, the original poster on that subject plans to post the exploit to BugTraq, as well as his own patches to fix the problem. This said, Mac has agreed that anything based on pre3 is not secure and should be removed. Of course, "pre-anything" with respect to ProFTPD is still beta code, and should be treated as such. -- These are my opinions -- not to be taken as official Skynet policy ____________________________________________________________________ |o| Brad Knowles, <blk@skynet.be> Belgacom Skynet NV/SA |o| |o| Systems Architect, News & FTP Admin Rue Col.
