ProFTPD 1.2.2rc2, and possibly other versions, does not properly verify reverse-resolved hostnames by performing forward resolution, which allows remote attackers to bypass ACLs or cause an incorrect client hostname to be logged.
Multiple format string vulnerabilities in ProFTPD before 1.3.0rc2 allow attackers to cause a denial of service or obtain sensitive information via (1) certain inputs to the shutdown message from ftpshut, or (2) the SQLShowInfo modsql directive.
