Can you please elaborate what EXACTLY the vulnerability is? I have
searched through the (quite hefty) diff between 1.20.1 and 1.20.2 and
have found only 4 differences that may be viewed as these, but the
changes in
src/ftp-ls.c and
src/http.c
do not fix a vulnerability.
The CVE-entry is not quite helpful, to say the least ;-)

Thanks,

Josef
