Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:011 (rsync)
Summary:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:011 (rsync)
Description:	The remote host is missing an update to rsync announced via advisory MDVSA-2008:011. rsync before 3.0.0pre6, when running a writable rsync daemon that is not using chroot, allows remote attackers to access restricted files via unknown vectors that cause rsync to create a symlink that points outside of the module's hierarchy. (CVE-2007-6199) Unspecified vulnerability in rsync before 3.0.0pre6, when running a writable rsync daemon, allows remote attackers to bypass exclude, exclude_from, and filter and read or write hidden files via (1) symlink, (2) partial-dir, (3) backup-dir, and unspecified (4) dest options. (CVE-2007-6200) This update fixes these issues. It is recommended users (specially system and network administrators) read the manpage about the introduced munge symlinks feature. This update also upgrades rsync to version 2.6.9 for all Mandriva Linux versions earlier than 2008.0. Affected: 2007.0, 2007.1, 2008.0, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDVSA-2008:011 http://rsync.samba.org/security.html#s3_0_0 Risk factor : Critical
