    take your pick, both of these have remote root exploits.  Both were 
    widely reported. A simple google search would have told you that.  
    
    wu-ftpd (why does anyone run this piece of crap, is it possible that they 
    will have a remote root exploit for EVERY release?)
    The current release is 2.6.2
    ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/pub/wu-ftpd-attic/cert.org/CA-2001-33
    
    May I suggest NcFTPD?
    
    OpenSSH-3.1 
    http://online.securityfocus.com/bid/5093
    
    Could I make a suggestion?  Stay current on patches.
