Hi, there doesn't seem to be an archive of this list so I might ask duplicates here. Sorry in advance if that's the case. Also, I've sent this email to the list a month ago and never showed up in my inbox, so if that mail already appeared and this is (yet another) duplicate, please excuse that as well. The simple question (I suppose) first: What is the SPSV-command shown in the feature list of a pureftp-server? I only know https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-rosenau-ftp-single-port-05.txt and the behavior of pureftp is clearly not conforming to this "standard". It's essentially EPSV and just returning the port number. Another more serious issue is the fact that when doing a TLS-handshake, pureftp's ServerHello lacks the Extension extended_master_secret as defined in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7627 This prevents Java based FTP-clients that use the JVM's JSSE from creating secured data connections unless you globally switch off the check for this extension (which is - as far as I understand it - an important security feature to prevent MITM-attacks). Is it possible to support this extension? If not, it might be good to add some comment in the documentation that Java based FTP-clients won't work with pureftp until they set the System Property -Djdk.tls.allowUnsafeServerCertChange=true that will globally turn off that security feature in that particular Java application affecting all other TLS-based communication that might take place (SMTPS, IMAPS, you name it). Thanks and best regards, Lothar Kimmeringer
