An SQL injection vulnerability in proftpd was reported on bugtraq

if they use mysql for authentication (and, presumably, postgresql).

This has been reported on the ProFTPD Bugzilla:

 http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3180

As discussed there, this is a duplicate of an earlier bug:

 http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3124

and has been fixed in ProFTPD 1.3.2rc3 and later.

Oh, forgot to ask.  It looks like this would have been introduced in
1.3.1.  Is that correct?  So the affected versions would be
1.3.1 to 1.3.2rc2.

Also, as I was looking at the Gentoo report, I noticed bug #3173 which
likely also needs a CVE name (for the "encoding-dependent SQL injection
vulnerability").

Thanks.
