SSA-2004-124-01 rsync update Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment New rsync packages are available for Slackware 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, and -current to fix a security issue. When running an rsync server without the chroot option it is possible for a possible hacker to write outside of the permited directory. Any sites running rsync in that mode should upgrade right away (and should probably look into using the chroot option as well).
