Topic

Updated ftp packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6.

Description

The ftp packages provide the standard UNIX command line File Transfer Protocol
(FTP) client. FTP is a widely used protocol for transferring files over the
Internet, and for archiving files.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Prior to this update, the ftp client could encounter a buffer overflow and

aborted if a macro longer than 200 characters was defined and then used after a
connection. This update modifies the underlying code and the buffer that holds
memory for the macro name was extended. Now, ftp matches the length of the
command line limit and the ftp client no longer aborts when a macro with a long
name is executed. (BZ#869858)

All users of ftp are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258
