| CVE-2010-20103 | Cri | 0.67 | 9.8 | 0.05 | Aug 20, 2025 | A malicious backdoor was embedded in the official ProFTPD 1.3.3c source tarball distributed between November 28 and December 2, 2010. The backdoor implements a hidden FTP command trigger that, when invoked, causes the server to execute arbitrary shell commands with root… | ||
| CVE-2020-9273 | Hig | 0.58 | 8.8 | 0.12 | Feb 20, 2020 | In ProFTPD 1.3.7, it is possible to corrupt the memory pool by interrupting the data transfer channel. This triggers a use-after-free in alloc_pool in pool.c, and possible remote code execution. | ||

Attackers can repeatedly establish connections using threading to exhaust server connection limits and block legitimate user… | ||
| CVE-2024-57392 | Hig | 0.49 | 7.5 | 0.01 | Feb 6, 2025 | Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Proftpd commit 4017eff8 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code and can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) on the FTP service by sending a maliciously crafted message to the ProFTPD service port. | ||
| CVE-2023-51713 | Hig | 0.49 | 7.5 | 0.04 | Dec 22, 2023 | make_ftp_cmd in main.c in ProFTPD before 1.3.8a has a one-byte out-of-bounds read, and daemon crash, because of mishandling of quote/backslash semantics. | ||

Failure to check for the appropriate field of a CRL entry (checking twice for subject, rather than once for subject and once for issuer) prevents some valid CRLs from being taken into account, and can allow… | ||
| CVE-2016-3125 | Hig | 0.49 | 7.5 | 0.07 | Apr 5, 2016 | The mod_tls module in ProFTPD before 1.3.5b and 1.3.6 before 1.3.6rc2 does not properly handle the TLSDHParamFile directive, which might cause a weaker than intended Diffie-Hellman (DH) key to be used and consequently allow attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown… | ||

The fxp_packet_read() function accepts the attacker-supplied 32-bit big-endian SFTP packet length without a minimum sanity check. A value of 0 causes an unsigned subtraction elsewhere… | ||
| CVE-2024-48651 | Hig | 0.42 | 7.5 | 0.02 | Nov 29, 2024 | In ProFTPD through 1.3.8b before cec01cc, supplemental group inheritance grants unintended access to GID 0 because of the lack of supplemental groups from mod_sql. | ||
