Detail

Sebastian Krahmer discovered that rsync, a fast remote file copy program, contains an off-by-one error which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitary code via long directory names.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.9-2etch1.

For the old stable distribution (sarge), this problem is not presnt.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your rsync package.
