Description

vsftpd returns "500 OOPS: priv_sock_get_cmd" when you login as a normal user, cd to a directory that another user has created (but you have access rights to) and do an ls, if the dir has ~40 entries.

This is a known issue, described in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=845980

and after applying the patch the problem seemed to be resolved. The changes have been accepted by vsftpd maintainers and are included in vsftpd 3.0.2

Patch can be found here:
