DescriptionNVD

In ProFTPD through 1.3.9a before 7666224, a SQL injection vulnerability in sqltab_fetch_clients_cb() in contrib/mod_wrap2_sql.c allows a remote attacker to inject arbitrary SQL commands via a crafted domain name that is accessed in a reverse DNS lookup. When "UseReverseDNS on" is enabled, the attacker-supplied hostname is passed unescaped into SQL queries. The character restrictions of DNS names may affect exploitability.

AnalysisAI

SQL injection in ProFTPD 1.3.9a and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands when the 'UseReverseDNS on' configuration is enabled. The vulnerability exists in mod_wrap2_sql.c where attacker-controlled reverse DNS hostnames are passed unescaped into SQL queries during client access control checks. …
