Comment 4 Salvatore Bonaccorso 2026-01-15 19:37:54 UTC 
Hi,

So is this correct that this CVE is specific for vsftpd in Red Hat due to an additional patch to support square brackets in ls command?

Only reference with CVE I found is related to this change:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/vsftpd/c/2ed5ba6e77f1c3e365fb4b0028945f762c456131

Thank you in advance,

Regards,
Salvatore
