Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.13.2022.227.01
Category:Slackware Local Security Checks
Title:Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2022-227-01)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'rsync' package(s) announced via the SSA:2022-227-01 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'rsync' package(s) announced via the SSA:2022-227-01 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
New rsync packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, 15.0,
and -current to fix a security issue.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/rsync-3.2.5-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
Added some file-list safety checking that helps to ensure that a rogue
sending rsync can't add unrequested top-level names and/or include recursive
names that should have been excluded by the sender. These extra safety
checks only require the receiver rsync to be updated. When dealing with an
untrusted sending host, it is safest to copy into a dedicated destination
directory for the remote content (i.e. don't copy into a destination
directory that contains files that aren't from the remote host unless you
trust the remote host).

Please install the updated package(s).
