ProFTPD 1.3.3 Server

According to http://www.proftpd.org site, some variations of the 1.3.3 version of ProFTPD were compromised. Apparently the 1.3.3d version, which was released in December, contains the fix. When we log in, there is no subversion letter after 1.3.3. I also noticed the latest Firmware for the ReadyNAS Pro is still 4.2.15 since October of last year -- which we have installed.

Does anyone know if the version in that Firmware release contains the version that's been compromised?? If so, is there any way (relatively simple way -- non-Linux geek here) to upgrade the ProFTPD Server?

  • Our certificate of compliance from Trustwave has been withdrawn due to security issues with 1.3.3c and we desparately need to resolve this. Anyone have any ideas (we are not Linux people so please go easy on us!)
  • Generally speaking it shouldn't be too hard to build a newer version of ProFTPd that can be installed on the ReadyNAS. But sincea new firmware is about to be released rsn your best bet may be to contact Netgear and ask whether this particular update could be included.
