Debian Security Advisory DSA 084-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
October 18th, 2001

Package : gftp
Vulnerability : Information Retrieval
Problem-Type : local unauthorized Information Retrieval
Debian-specific: no
Stephane Gaudreault told us that version 2.0.6a of gftp displays the
password in plain text on the screen within the log window when it is
logging into an ftp server. A malicious collegue who is watching the
screen could gain access to the users shell on the remote machine.
This problem has been fixed by the Security Team in version 2.0.6a-3.2
for the stable Debian GNU/Linux 2.2.
We recommend that you upgrade your gftp package.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:
apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages
You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
