Very Secure FTP Daemon - Written from Scratch
Vsftpd is an FTP server, or daemon. The "vs" stands for Very Secure.
Obviously this is not a guarantee, but the entire codebase was written
with security in mind, and carefully designed to be resilient to
attack.
Recent evidence suggests that vsftpd is also extremely fast (and this
is before any explicit performance tuning!). In tests against wu-ftpd,
vsftpd was always faster, supporting over twice as many users in some
tests.

- Version bump to 3.0.3: * Increase VSFTP_AS_LIMIT to 200MB; various reports. * Make the PWD response more RFC compliant; report from Barry Kelly <barry@modeltwozero.com>. * Remove the trailing period from EPSV response to work around BT Internet issues; report from Tim Bishop <tdb@mirrorservice.org>. * Fix syslog_enable issues vs. seccomp filtering. Report from Michal Vyskocil <mvyskocil@suse.cz>. At least, syslogging seems to work on my Fedora now. * Allow gettimeofday() in the seccomp sandbox. I can't repro failures, but I probably have a different distro / libc / etc. and there are multiple reports. * Some kernels support PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS but not PR_SET_SECCOMP, so handle this case gracefully. Report from Vasily Averin <vvs@odin.com>. * List the TLS1.2 cipher AES128-GCM-SHA256 as first preference by default. * Make some compile-time SSL defaults (such as correct client shutdown handling) stricter. * Disable Nagle algorithm during SSL data connection shutdown, to avoid 200ms delays. From Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>. * Kill the FTP session if we see HTTP protocol commands, to avoid cross-protocol attacks. A report from Jann Horn <jann@thejh.net>. * Kill the FTP session if we see session re-use failure. A report from Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>. * Enable ECDHE, Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>. * Default cipher list is now just ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384. * Minor SSL logging improvements. * Un-default tunable_strict_ssl_write_shutdown again. We still have tunable_strict_ssl_read_eof defaulted now, which is the important one to prove upload integrity. - Drop patch vsftpd-allow-dev-log-socket.patch should be included upstream, se above bullet with mvyskocil's email
