Category:Trustix Local Security Checks
Title:Trustix Security Advisory TSLSA-2004-0024 (rsync)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory TSLSA-2004-0024.

From the rsync homepage:
There is a security fix included in 2.6.1 that affects only people
running a read/write daemon WITHOUT using chroot. If the user privs
that such an rsync daemon is using is anything above nobody, you are
at risk of someone crafting an attack that could write a file outside
of the module's path. Please either enable chroot or upgrade to 2.6.1.
People not running a daemon, running a read-only daemon, or running a
chrooted daemon are totally unaffected.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CVE-2004-0426 to this issue.

Solution:
Update your system with the packages as indicated in
the referenced security advisory.
