<bug_description>The target host seems to be a Symantec Raptor Firewall 6.5 with a running Security Gateway ftp server. The server banner is always "Secure Gateway FTP server". An attacker may use this information to start further investigation or dedicated attacks.</bug_description>
<bug_solution>You should upgrade your Symantec Raptor Firewall 6.5 to the new Symantec Enterprise Firewall 7.x or newer. Also limit unwanted connections and communications with ACL and firewalling. A filter may prevent such an enumeration at an external interface.</bug_solution>
