>Number: 48234
>Category: misc
>Synopsis: tftpd no longer allows unrestricted creation of new files.
>Confidential: no
>Severity: non-critical
>Priority: low
>Responsible: misc-bug-people
>State: open
>Class: change-request
>Submitter-Id: net
>Arrival-Date: Tue Sep 24 01:55:00 +0000 2013
>Originator: Jeff Woodall
>Release: NetBSD 6.1.1
>Organization:
N/A
>Environment:
System: NetBSD widebody.sleepy.cat 6.1.1 NetBSD 6.1.1 (GENERIC) amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
Native tftpd no longer has -c option even though manpage mentions
it. Without -c tftpd won't allow unrestricted creation of new files.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to use tftpd -c option
>Fix:
Either restore the -c functionality or update tftpd manpage.
Restoring the previous functionality would be useful in some
situations and probably shouldn't pose a security risk as long
as -c is left out of the default /etc/inetd.conf entries.
