Detail

Sebastian Krahmer found several places in rsync (a popular tool to synchronise files between machines) where signed and unsigned numbers were mixed which resulted in insecure code. This could be abused by remote users to write 0-bytes in rsync's memory and trick rsync into executing arbitrary code.

This has been fixed in version 2.3.2-1.3 and we recommend you upgrade your rsync package immediately.

wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file.
