System: FreeBSD D00015.dialonly.kemerovo.su 4.5-RC FreeBSD 4.5-RC #1: Sun Jan 13 13:22:48 KRAT 2002 eu@D00015.dialonly.kemerovo.su:/usr/local/obj/mnt/old/usr/src/sys/DADV i386
Have CPUTYPE=i686 in /etc/make.conf and no other optimizations.

>Description:
	It is easy to make ftpd child to die with SIGSEGV.

>How-To-Repeat:
	
1. Have ftpd enabled in /etc/inetd.conf:

ftp    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/libexec/ftpd       ftpd -llSd

   Note that flags '-llSd' are for debugging purpuses only.
   SIGSEGV is triggered with no flags too.

2. Create perl script for triggering this bug:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

$|=1;

use strict;
use Net::FTP;

my $ftp;
my $data;
$ftp = Net::FTP->new("localhost");
$ftp->login("ftp",'');
$ftp->quot('TYPE I');
$ftp->pasv();
$ftp->retr('test');
$data=$ftp->_dataconn();
$data->reading();
$ftp->abort();

Note:
	a) you need ports/net/p5-Net to run this,
	b) hostname may not be localhost, it may be remote too,
	c) you can use anonymous or general login, it does not matter;
	   it can be chrooted or not,	
	d) name of the file does not matter too.

3. As an option:

   use sysctl kern.sugid_coredump=1;
   set sysctl kern.corefile to directory where ftpd will have write permissions
   to create core; use sysctl net.inet.tcp.log_in_vain=1, the script seldom
   fails to crash ftpd - in that case you will see 'in vain' connection
   from port 20 to randomly selected port. Just rerun script then.
   Rebuild ftpd with debug info.

Here is ftpd's example log:

Jan 14 01:23:19 D00015 ftpd[5831]: connection from localhost (127.0.0.1)

Here ftpd child died with SIGSEGV and we have corefile.
