                    Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Package name:           rsync
    Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2002:009
    Date:                   January 28th, 2002
    Affected versions:      7.1, 7.2, 8.0, 8.1, Corporate Server 1.0.1
                            Single Network Firewall 7.2
    ________________________________________________________________________
    
    Problem Description:
    
     Sebastian Krahmer of the SuSE Security Team performed an audit on the
     rsync tool and discovered that in several places signed and unsigned
     numbers were mixed, with the end result being insecure code.  These
     flaws could be abused by remote users to write 0 bytes into rsync's
     memory and trick rsync into executing arbitrary code on the server.
    
     It is recommended that all Mandrake Linux users update rsync 
     immediately.  As well, rsync server administrators should seriously
     consider making use of the "use chroot", "read only", and "uid" options
     as these can significantly reduce the impact that security problems in
     rsync (or elsewhere) have on the server.
