Echo: rsync: security update to 3.5.0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 462568

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - rsync before 3.5.0 contains an arbitrary file write vulnerability that allows attackers to write files
 outside the intended destination tree by specifying an absolute path via --temp-dir or --link-dest
 options. The rename-confinement logic is bypassed when these options resolve to paths outside the
 destination tree, enabling attacker-controlled values to write files to arbitrary locations accessible to
 the rsync process. (CVE-2026-53795)

Solution

Update the rsync library and its related packages to version 3.5.0 or later.
