ProFTPd 1.2.4 on FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE gives this in /var/log/messages: ---- Dec 19 17:49:16 thallium proftpd Dec 19 17:49:16 thallium in free(): Dec 19 17:49:16 thallium warning: Dec 19 17:49:16 thallium junk pointer, too high to make sense. ---- Repeated a douzen times... the FTP daemon does not crash, however. --Rink

This is very similar to the wu-ftpd bug ("ls ~{") and occurs when you issue the command: ls /////////// (11 or more '/'). I haven't figured out if it's exploitable. That's why I post it to you guys. :-) AFFECTED VERSIONS ================= ProFTPD 1.2.4 ProFTPD 1.2.2rc3 (Others may be affected as well.) SYSTEMS ======= This is tested on Slackware 8.
