SSA-2003-337-01 rsync security update Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Rsync is a file transfer client and server. A security problem which may lead to unauthorized machine access or code execution has been fixed by upgrading to rsync-2.5.7. This problem only affects machines running rsync in daemon mode, and is easier to exploit if the non-default option "use chroot = no" is used in the /etc/rsyncd.conf config file. Any sites running an rsync server should upgrade immediately.
