AFP Version Vunerable

[StephenM]

I have ARM TNAS running 4.2.41

The installed AFPD/Netatalk is vulnerable as it is only at version 3.1.12

When will this be updated for ARM?

This vulnerability has been known about and a fix released by Netatalk for OVER A YEAR NOW.

Very poor! You should be ashamed of your lack of response to this vulnerability TerraMaster.

AFP was deprecated by Apple on newer MacOS versions (10.9 and newer), so this should just be removed altogether, since it's vulnerable & even Apple wants users to move away from it.

Unless there is a reliable solution to using SMB drives for Time Machine Backup that doesn't require me to re-partition my RAID array so that I can prevent the backups filling up my whole array then I'll be using AFP.

Besides the x86 TOS 5 version does have the 3.1.13 AFP version which has the security vulnerabilities resolved.

Why can't us ARM users get a fix as well.

afp is an abandoned file service, I have disabled it.
