It was discovered that there was an injection vulnerability in the rsync file-copying tool.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', this issue has been fixed in rsync version 3.0.9-4+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your rsync packages.

This update for rsync fixes one issues. This security issue was fixed :

  - CVE-2018-5764: The parse_arguments function in options.c     did not prevent multiple --protect-args uses, which     allowed remote attackers to bypass an     argument-sanitization protection mechanism     (bsc#1076503).

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3543-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that rsync incorrectly handled certain data input. An attacker could possibly use this     to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-16548)

    It was discovered that rsync incorrectly parsed certain arguments. An attacker could possibly use this to     bypass arguments and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-5764)

New version 3.1.3, includes security fix for CVE-2018-5764

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

According to the versions of the rsync package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The receive_xattr function in xattrs.c in rsync 3.1.2     and 3.1.3-development does not check for a trailing     '\\0' character in an xattr name, which allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based     buffer over-read and application crash) or possibly     have unspecified other impact by sending crafted data     to the daemon.(CVE-2017-16548)

  - The parse_arguments function in options.c in rsyncd in     rsync before 3.1.3 does not prevent multiple
    --protect-args uses, which allows remote attackers to     bypass an argument-sanitization protection     mechanism.(CVE-2018-5764)

  - The recv_files function in receiver.c in the daemon in     rsync 3.1.2, and 3.1.3-development before 2017-12-03,     proceeds with certain file metadata updates before     checking for a filename in the daemon_filter_list data     structure, which allows remote attackers to bypass     intended access restrictions.(CVE-2017-17433)

  - rsync 3.1.3-development before 2017-10-24 mishandles     archaic checksums, which makes it easier for remote     attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. NOTE:
    the rsync development branch has significant use beyond     the rsync developers, e.g., the code has been copied     for use in various GitHub projects.(CVE-2017-15994)
