vsftpd before 1.2.2, when under heavy load, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a SIGCHLD signal during a malloc or free call, which is not re-entrant.
vsftpd 1.1.3 generates different error messages depending on whether or not a valid username exists, which allows remote attackers to identify valid usernames.
Unspecified vulnerability in vsftpd 3.0.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass access restrictions via unknown vectors, related to denyfile parsing.
