FTPES session reuse

#1 Post by xeon » 2012-04-11 05:52

Hello,

I noticed in vsftpd's newest 3.0.0 release the changelog states there's a problem with filezilla when it comes to FTPES compatibility.

"Unfortunately the default vsftpd SSL confiuration still doesn't fully work
with FileZilla, because FileZilla has a data connection security problem:
no client certificate presentation and no session reuse. At least the error
message is now very clear."


I'm hoping someone can make it clear whether this is the case or not.

Thanks

FileZilla does use session reuse. It appears there is a bug though in certain GnuTLS versions that breaks session reusing.
