This update, to the current (and final) release for the 1.3.3 maintenance branch, includes a pair of security fixes:
Enable OpenSSL countermeasure against SSLv3/TLSv1 BEAST attacks (upstream bug 3704); to disable this countermeasure, which may cause interoperability issues with some clients, use the NoEmptyFragments TLSOption
Response pool use-after-free memory corruption error (upstream bug 3711, #752812, ZDI-CAN-1420), in which a remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted request (resulting in a need for the server to handle an exceptional condition), leading to memory corruption and potentially arbitrary code execution, with the privileges of the user running the proftpd server
