The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200409-19 (Heimdal: ftpd root escalation)

Przemyslaw Frasunek discovered several flaws in lukemftpd, which also apply     to Heimdal ftpd's out-of-band signal handling code.
Additionally, a potential vulnerability that could lead to Denial of     Service by the Key Distribution Center (KDC) has been fixed in this     version.

Impact :

A remote attacker could be able to run arbitrary code with escalated     privileges, which can result in a total compromise of the server.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
