According to the version of the rsync package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

  - rsync 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to write to     arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in the     synchronization path.(CVE-2014-9512)

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

This update for rsync fixes two security issues and two non-security bugs.

The following vulnerabilities were fixed :

  - CVE-2014-8242: Checksum collisions leading to a denial     of service (bsc#900914)

  - CVE-2014-9512: Malicious servers could send files     outside of the transferred directory (bsc#915410)

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

rsync was updated to fix one security issue.

  - CVE-2014-9512: rsync allowed remote attackers to write     to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in the     synchronization path (bsc#915410).

rsync was updated to fix one security issue.

This security issue was fixed :

  - CVE-2014-9512: rsync allowed remote attackers to write     to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in the     synchronization path (boo#915410).

This update for rsync fixes the several issues.

These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2017-17434: The daemon in rsync did not check for     fnamecmp filenames in the daemon_filter_list data     structure (in the recv_files function in receiver.c) and     also did not apply the sanitize_paths protection     mechanism to pathnames found in 'xname follows' strings     (in the read_ndx_and_attrs function in rsync.c), which     allowed remote attackers to bypass intended access     restrictions' (bsc#1071460).

  - CVE-2017-17433: The recv_files function in receiver.c in     the daemon in rsync, proceeded with certain file     metadata updates before checking for a filename in the     daemon_filter_list data structure, which allowed remote     attackers to bypass intended access restrictions     (bsc#1071459).

  - CVE-2017-16548: The receive_xattr function in xattrs.c     in rsync did not check for a trailing '\\0' character in     an xattr name, which allowed 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     (bsc#1066644).

  - CVE-2014-9512: Prevent attackers to write to arbitrary     files via a symlink attack on a file in the     synchronization path (bsc#915410).

These non-security issues were fixed :

  - Stop file upload after errors like a full disk     (boo#1062063)

  - Ensure -X flag works even when setting owner/group     (boo#1028842)

This update for rsync fixes two security issues :

  - CVE-2014-8242: Checksum collisions leading to a denial     of service (bsc#900914)

  - CVE-2014-9512: Malicious servers could send files     outside of the transferred directory (bsc#915410)

The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 10.13.x prior to 10.13.6 Security Update 2020-004, 10.14.x prior to 10.14.6 Security Update 2020-004, or 10.15.x prior to 10.15.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:

  - A vulnerability was discovered in Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, MacOS, iOS, and Android that allows a malicious     access point, or an adjacent user, to determine if a connected user is using a VPN, make positive     inferences about the websites they are visiting, and determine the correct sequence and acknowledgement     numbers in use, allowing the bad actor to inject data into the TCP stream. This provides everything that     is needed for an attacker to hijack active connections inside the VPN tunnel. (CVE-2019-14899)

  - cyrus-sasl (aka Cyrus SASL) 2.1.27 has an out-of-bounds write leading to unauthenticated remote     denial-of-service in OpenLDAP via a malformed LDAP packet. The OpenLDAP crash is ultimately caused by an     off-by-one error in _sasl_add_string in common.c in cyrus-sasl. (CVE-2019-19906)

  - In Vim before 8.1.0881, users can circumvent the rvim restricted mode and execute arbitrary OS commands     via scripting interfaces (e.g., Python, Ruby, or Lua). (CVE-2019-20807)

  - rsync 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in the     synchronization path. (CVE-2014-9512)

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

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201605-04 (rsync: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in rsync. Please review       the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    Remote attackers could write arbitrary files via symlink attacks.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

rsync was updated to fix one security issue.

This security issue was fixed :

  - Path spoofing attack vulnerability (CVE-2014-9512).

It was discovered that rsync incorrectly handled invalid filenames. A malicious server could use this issue to write files outside of the intended destination directory.

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