Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2016-3125 (CCN-111467)

Assigned:2016-03-11
Published:2016-03-11
Updated:2018-10-30
Summary:The mod_tls module in ProFTPD before 1.3.5b and 1.3.6 before 1.3.6rc2 does not properly handle the TLSDHParamFile directive, which might cause a weaker than intended Diffie-Hellman (DH) key to be used and consequently allow attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors.
