Fedora 44 : rsync (2026-75599531db)

high Nessus Plugin ID 314987

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 44 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-75599531db advisory.

 Fixing various bugs from Upstream.

 I did not do a rebase since the Upstream stopped supporting the rsync-patches repo. I accepted this change in Rawhide but it changes the usage of one option that is no longer available in rsync. This is why I avoided the rebase in older stable branches.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected rsync package.
