Slackware: 2022-227-01: rsync Security Update
Summary
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). For more information, see: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-29154 (* Security fix *)
