tag_insight = "rsync is a program for synchronizing files over a network.
A flaw was found in the way the rsync daemon handled the "filter",
"exclude", and "exclude from" options, used for hiding files and preventing
access to them from rsync clients. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
bypass those restrictions by using certain command line options and
symbolic links, allowing the attacker to overwrite those files if they knew
their file names and had write access to them. (CVE-2007-6200)
Note: This issue only affected users running rsync as a writable daemon:
"read only" set to "false" in the rsync configuration file (for example,
"/etc/rsyncd.conf"). By default, this option is set to "true".
This update also fixes the following bugs:
* The rsync package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.0.6, which
provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version.
(BZ#339971)
* When running an rsync daemon that was receiving files, a deferred info,
error or log message could have been sent directly to the sender instead of
being handled by the "rwrite()" function in the generator. Also, under
certain circumstances, a deferred info or error message from the receiver
could have bypassed the log file and could have been sent only to the
client process. As a result, an "unexpected tag 3" fatal error could have
been displayed. These problems have been fixed in this update so that an
rsync daemon receiving files now works as expected. (BZ#471182)
* Prior to this update, the rsync daemon called a number of timezone-using
functions after doing a chroot. As a result, certain C libraries were
unable to generate proper timestamps from inside a chrooted daemon. This
bug has been fixed in this update so that the rsync daemon now calls the
respective timezone-using functions prior to doing a chroot, and proper
timestamps are now generated as expected. (BZ#575022)
* When running rsync under a non-root user with the "-A" ("--acls") option
and without using the "--numeric-ids" option, if there was an Access
Control List (ACL) that included a group entry for a group that the
respective user was not a member of on the receiving side, the
"acl_set_file()" function returned an invalid argument value ("EINVAL").
This was caused by rsync mistakenly mapping the group name to the Group ID
"GID_NONE" ("-1"), which failed. The bug has been fixed in this update so
that no ...
