Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2015.0409
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2015-0409)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'rsync' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2015-0409 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'rsync' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2015-0409 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Michael Samuel discovered that rsync was vulnerable to checksum
collisions. This could prevent rsync from running and syncing files
successfully, which could break various applications that use and rely on
rsync (rhbz#1197601).

The patched rsync will now operate in a way that is not vulnerable to this
issue as long as both the rsync client and rsync server support the new
'C' option that has been added. This issue is similar to an issue in
librsync which was fixed in MGASA-2015-0146.

Affected Software/OS:
'rsync' package(s) on Mageia 5.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
