    rsync 3.0.1 < 3.5.0 Heap Out-of-Bounds Write via read_args()

    rsync 3.0.1 before 3.5.0 contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the read_args() function that allows a malicious sender to corrupt adjacent heap memory by sending a crafted argument list. When the argument count causes the argv allocation to be exac…

    rsync 3.0.0 < 3.5.0 Out-of-Bounds Write via FLAG_HLINKED Handling

    rsync 3.0.0 before 3.5.0 contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability that allows attackers to corrupt memory by triggering HLINK_BUMP processing on file entries with the FLAG_HLINKED flag set while the hard-link preservation option is inactive. Attackers ca…

    rsync 2.3.3 < 3.5.0 Path Traversal via --partial-dir/--backup-dir Symlink

    rsync 2.3.3 before 3.5.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows a malicious sender to escape the module root by exploiting symlinks within the module file tree when using --partial-dir or --backup-dir options. Attackers with write access to place…

  • High 8.2

    rsync 3.2.5 < 3.5.0 Heap Out-of-Bounds Write via files-from Entry

    rsync 3.2.5 before 3.5.0 contains a heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to write one attacker-controlled byte past the end of a heap allocation by supplying a crafted files-from entry. Attackers can trigger the …

    CVE-2026-70463 Public exploit

    rsync 3.1.0 < 3.5.0 Authorization Bypass via auth users Directive Parsing

    rsync 3.1.0 before 3.5.0 contains an authorization bypass in auth users directive parsing. The auth users parser uses comma-only tokenization when splitting the user list, which fails to correctly handle entries of the form @Group Name where the group name co…

  • High 7.5

    rsync 2.0.0 < 3.5.0 Connection Slot Exhaustion DoS via Handshake Stall

    rsync daemon 2.0.0 before 3.5.0 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to exhaust daemon connection slots by stalling the handshake process before or after module selection without triggering the I/O timeout. A…

  • High 8.1

    rsync < 3.5.0 Arbitrary File Write via --temp-dir/--link-dest

    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 th…

  • High 7.4

    rsync < 3.5.0 Path Confinement Bypass via /./ Boundary Marker in Chroot Mode

    rsync before 3.5.0 contains a path confinement bypass vulnerability that allows remote clients to escape the intended inner-module root confinement by constructing paths that resolve outside the chroot boundary when the module root contains a /./ boundary mar…

  • High 8.1

    rsync < 3.5.0 Command Injection via Multiple Code Paths

    rsync before 3.5.0 contains multiple command and argument injection vulnerabilities that allow attackers to execute arbitrary commands by supplying malicious input through several code paths, including the RSYNC_CONNECT_PROG environment variable, daemon hooks…

  • High 7.1

    rsync < 3.5.0 Path Traversal Write Escape via --relative Mode

    rsync before 3.5.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows a malicious sender to write files outside the intended destination directory tree by crafting relative paths with symlink components in --relative mode. The make_path() function follows sy…

  • High 7.1

    rsync < 3.5.0 Path Traversal via Symlink Module Root

    rsync before 3.5.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows remote clients to access files outside the intended module root when use chroot is disabled and the module root path or a component of it is a symlink. The daemon calls chdir() to the modu…
