Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.60240
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:011 (rsync)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description: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.
