Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
Package name: rsync
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:083
Date: August 17th, 2004
Affected versions: 10.0, 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1, Multi
Network Firewall 8.2
Problem Description:
An advisory was sent out by the rsync team regarding a security
vulnerability in all versions of rsync prior to and including
2.6.2. If rsync is running in daemon mode, and not in a chrooted
environment, it is possible for a remote attacker to trick rsyncd
into creating an absolute pathname while sanitizing it. This
vulnerability allows a remote attacker to possibly read/write
to/from files outside of the rsync directory.
The updated packages are patched to prevent this problem.
