How to fix?

Upgrade froxlor/froxlor to version 2.2.0 or higher.

Overview

froxlor/froxlor is a server administration software.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource due to insecure file permissions set on mysql.conf. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive database credentials by reading the file as an unprivileged local user, which can then be used to alter administrator credentials and escalate privileges to root. This is only exploitable if the system is configured to use pure-ftpd and the parent directories are world readable.
