synchronise files between machines) where signed and unsigned numbers
were mixed which resulted in insecure code. This could be abused by
remote users to write 0-bytes in rsync's memory and trick rsync into
executing arbitrary code.
This has been fixed in version 2.3.2-1.3 and we recommend you upgrade
your rsync package immediately.";
