Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/proftpd-1.3.3d-i486-1_slack13.1.txz: Upgraded.
 This update fixes an unbounded copy operation in sql_prepare_where() that
 could be exploited to execute arbitrary code. However, this only affects
 servers that use the sql_mod module (which Slackware does not ship), and
 in addition the ability to exploit this depends on an SQL injection bug
 that was already fixed in proftpd-1.3.2rc2 (this according to upstream).
 So in theory, this fix should only be of academic interest.
 But in practice, better safe than sorry.
 (* Security fix *)
