+  <title>oftpd DoS vulnerability</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    A remotely-exploitable overflow exists in oftpd, allowing an attacker to
+    crash the oftpd daemon.

+    "oftpd is designed to be as secure as an anonymous FTP server can
+    possibly be. It runs as non-root for most of the time, and uses the
+    Unix chroot() command to hide most of the systems directories from
+    external users - they cannot change into them even if the server is
+    totally compromised! It contains its own directory change code, so that
+    it can run efficiently as a threaded server, and its own directory
+    listing code (most FTP servers execute the system "ls" command to list
+    files)."
+    </p>

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Issuing a port command with a number higher than 255 causes the server
+    to crash. The port command may be issued before any authentication
+    takes place, meaning the attacker does not need to know a valid
+    username and password in order to exploit this vulnerability.

+  <workaround>

+    While a workaround is not currently known for this issue, all users are
+    advised to upgrade to the latest version of the affected package.

+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All users should upgrade to the current version of the affected
