rsync regression
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 24.10

Summary:

USN-7206-3 caused some regression in rsync.

Software Description:
- rsync: fast, versatile, remote (and local) file-copying tool

Details:

USN-7206-3 fixed vulnerabilities in rsync for Ubuntu 24.10. The update
introduced a regression in rsync. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

  Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos, and Jasiel Spelman discovered that rsync
  did not properly handle checksum lengths. An attacker could use this
  issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-12084)

  Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos, and Jasiel Spelman discovered that rsync
  compared checksums with uninitialized memory. An attacker could exploit
  this issue to leak sensitive information. (CVE-2024-12085)

  Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos, and Jasiel Spelman discovered that rsync
  incorrectly handled file checksums. A malicious server could use this
  to expose arbitrary client files. (CVE-2024-12086)

  Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos, and Jasiel Spelman discovered that rsync
  mishandled symlinks for some settings. An attacker could exploit this
  to write files outside the intended directory. (CVE-2024-12087)

  Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos, and Jasiel Spelman discovered that rsync
  failed to verify symbolic link destinations for some settings. An
  attacker could exploit this for path traversal attacks. (CVE-2024-12088)

  Aleksei Gorban discovered a race condition in rsync's handling of
  symbolic links. An attacker could use this to access sensitive
  information or escalate privileges. (CVE-2024-12747)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 24.10
   rsync                           3.3.0-1ubuntu0.2

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
After a standard system update you need to restart rsync daemons if
configured to make all the necessary changes.
