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-404-1 : rsync - heap overflow
