The specification for the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) contains a
number of mechanisms that can be used to compromise network security.
The FTP specification allows a client to instruct a server to
transfer files to a third machine. This third-party mechanism, known
as proxy FTP, causes a well known security problem. The FTP
specification also allows an unlimited number of attempts at entering
a user's password. This allows brute force "password guessing"
attacks. This document provides suggestions for system
administrators and those implementing FTP servers that will decrease
the security problems associated with FTP. |

This highly regarded book, originally titled Building Secure Servers with Linux, combines practical advice with a firm knowledge of the technical tools needed to ensure security. |
