Bug description:
  Proftpd version 1.3.1-6ubuntu1 exploit:

  The variable substitution feature in the version of ProFTPD running on
  the remote host can be abused to conduct a SQL injection attack. For
  example, a remote attacker can bypass authentication using a specially
  crafted username containing a percent sign character ('%'), a single
  quote, and SQL code.
