The FreeBSD security advisory FreeBSD-SA-11:07.chroot reports:

If ftpd is configured to place a user in a chroot environment, then an attacker who can log in as that user may be able to run arbitrary code(...).

Proftpd shares the same problem of a similar nature.

< 1.3.3g_1

< 1.3.3.r4_3,1

Secunia reports:

The vulnerability is caused due to the application truncating an overly long FTP command, and improperly interpreting the remainder string as a new FTP command. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary FTP commands with the privileges of another user by e.g. tricking the user into following malicious link.

Secunia reports:

Some vulnerabilities have been reported in ProFTPD, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

The application improperly sets the character encoding prior to performing SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code in an environment using a multi-byte character encoding.

An error exists in the "mod_sql" module when processing e.g. user names containing '%' characters. This can be exploited to bypass input sanitation routines and manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
