Debian: DSA-016-2 Moderate: Wu-FTPD Temp File and Exploit Risk

Security people at WireX have noticed a temp file creation bug and the
WU-FTPD development team has found a possible format string bug in
wu-ftpd. Both could be remotely exploited, though no such exploit
exists currently.

This additional advisory only announces a recompile of the package for
the Intel ia32 architecture. The upload from yesterday was lacking
PAM support. This only required a recompile and contains no other fixes.

For upgrading please use

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

Or use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to
the proper configuration.

soon.
