 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2008:018
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Package : gftp
 Date    : January 21, 2008
 Affected: 2007.1
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 Kalle Olavi Niemitalo found two boundary errors in the fsplib library,
 a copy of which is included in gFTP source.  A remote attacer could
 trigger these vulnerabilities by enticing a user to download a file
 with a specially crafted directory or file name, possibly resulting in
 the execution of arbitrary code (CVE-2007-3962) or a denial of service
 (CVE-2007-3961).
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
