Debian DSA-499-2 : rsync - directory traversal

A vulnerability was discovered in rsync, a file transfer program, whereby a remote user could cause an rsync daemon to write files outside of the intended directory tree. This vulnerability is not exploitable when the daemon is configured with the 'chroot' option. %NASLMINLEVEL 70300 C Tenable...

Debian DSA-106-2 : rsync - remote exploit

Sebastian Krahmer found several places in rsync a popular tool to synchronise files between machines where signed and unsigned numbers were mixed which resulted in insecure code see securityfocus.com. This could be abused by remote users to write 0-bytes in rsync's memory and trick rsync into...

Debian DSA-538-1 : rsync - unsanitised input processing

The rsync developers have discovered a security related problem in rsync, a fast remote file copy program, which offers an attacker to access files outside of the defined directory. To exploit this path-sanitizing bug, rsync has to run in daemon mode with the chroot option being disabled. It does...

Debian DSA-404-1 : rsync - heap overflow

The rsync team has received evidence that a vulnerability in all versions of rsync prior to 2.5.7, a fast remote file copy program, was recently used in combination with a Linux kernel vulnerability to compromise the security of a public rsync server.

GLSA-200407-10 : rsync: Directory traversal in rsync daemon

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200407-10 rsync: Directory traversal in rsync daemon When rsyncd is used without chroot 'use chroot = false' in the rsyncd.conf file, the paths sent by the client are not checked thoroughly enough. If rsyncd is used with read-writ...
