Details: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-47865 This CVE was opened based on a 5 years old Github issue[1], and has been made public recently. The CVE wasn't officially disputed (yet?), but based on the description and the given PoC the application is working as expected. The vulnerability description and the PoC basically configures proftpd to accept maximum x connections, and then when the user tries to open x + 1 concurrent connections, it refuses new connections over the configured limit. See also discussion in the Github issue. It seems that it won't be fixed, because there is nothing to fix.

meta-networking
This layer is intended to be a central point for networking-related packages and configuration. It should be useful directly on top of oe-core and compliments meta-openembedded. It should be primarily useful to the following groups:
- Anyone building a small networking device (eg. a home router /
bridge / switch).
- Anyone wanting to add network services to their device (eg.
anything that might benefit from a small ftp/tftp server)
Dependencies
This layer depends on:
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core branch: Scarthgap
For some recipes, the meta-oe layer is required:
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded subdirectory: meta-oe branch: Scarthgap
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded subdirectory: meta-python branch: Scarthgap
