says they may not modify existing files through FTP.
Renaming a file is effectively a way to modify it.
For instance, if a malicious party is unable to delete or overwrite
a sensitive file, they can nevertheless rename it to a hidden name
and then upload a troyan horse under the guise of the old file name.
contents in reply to a RETR command. Such clients consider RETR
as a way to tell a file from a directory. Mozilla is an example.

- Unify the conditional assignments section so that architectural
exclusions come first, then options and !options, sorted by the
option name, also in directory order, then architecture specific
sections, sorted by the architecture name, with i386 being a
traditional exception.

However, the code did allow deletion of files. Make deleting require the -m

constants NG_*SIZ that include the trailing NUL byte. This change
is mostly mechanical except for the replacement of a couple of snprintf()
and sprintf() calls with strlcpy.

global 'libmap_disable' variable in rtld.c.
This totally prevents any libmap functions from being called after
lm_init() if no config file is present.
Previously, there were two copies of telnet; a non-crypto version
that lived in the usual places, and a crypto version that lived in
crypto/telnet/. The latter was built in a broken manner somewhat akin
to other "contribified" sources. This meant that there were 4 telnets
competing with each other at build time - KerberosIV, Kerberos5,
plain-old-secure and base. KerberosIV is no longer in the running, but
the other three took it in turns to jump all over each other during a
"make buildworld".
As the crypto issue has been clarified, and crypto _calls_ are not
a problem, crypto/telnet has been repo-copied to contrib/telnet,
and with this commit, all telnets are now "contribified". The contrib
path was chosen to not destroy history in the repository, and differs
from other contrib/ entries in that it may be worked on as "normal"
BSD code. There is no dangerous crypto in these sources, only a
very weak system less strong than enigma(1).
Kerberos5 telnet and Secure telnet are now selected by using the usual
macros in /etc/make.conf, and the build process is unsurprising and
less treacherous.
Rationale:
SIGURG is configured by ftpd to interrupt system calls, which is useful
during data transfers. However, SIGURG could interrupt I/O on the
control channel as well, which was mistaken for the end of the session.
A practical example could be aborting the download of a tiny file,
when the abort sequence reached ftpd after ftpd had passed the file
data to the system and returned to its command loop.
