Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

proftpd was updated to fix one security issue.

This security issue was fixed :

 - CVE-2016-3125: 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.

Update the affected proftpd packages.
