"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0230 advisory.
Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2024-12087:
A path traversal vulnerability exists in rsync. It stems from behavior enabled by the --inc-recursive
option, a default-enabled option for many client options and can be enabled by the server even if not
explicitly enabled by the client. When using the --inc-recursive option, a lack of proper symlink
verification coupled with deduplication checks occurring on a per-file-list basis could allow a server to
write files outside of the client's intended destination directory. A malicious server could write
malicious files to arbitrary locations named after valid directories/paths on the client.
CVE-2024-12088:
A flaw was found in rsync. When using the --safe-links option, rsync fails to properly verify if a
symbolic link destination contains another symbolic link within it. This results in a path traversal
vulnerability, which may lead to arbitrary file write outside the desired directory.
CVE-2024-12747:
A flaw was found in rsync. This vulnerability arises from a race condition during rsync's handling of
symbolic links. Rsync's default behavior when encountering symbolic links is to skip them. If an attacker
replaced a regular file with a symbolic link at the right time, it was possible to bypass the default
behavior and traverse symbolic links. Depending on the privileges of the rsync process, an attacker could
leak sensitive information, potentially leading to privilege escalation.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
