Fedora 36: FEDORA-2022-25e4dbedf9 Critical: Remote Access Threats in Rsync

fedora
Calendar Grey August 17, 2022
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The latest Fedora 36 upgrade for rsync 3.2.5 resolves major vulnerabilities in file synchronization, significantly improving defense mechanisms against external attacks.
New version 3.2.5 Fix for CVE-2022-29154, CVE-2022-37434

Summary

Rsync uses a reliable algorithm to bring remote and host files into

sync very quickly. Rsync is fast because it just sends the differences

in the files over the network instead of sending the complete

files. Rsync is often used as a very powerful mirroring process or

just as a more capable replacement for the rcp command. A technical

report which describes the rsync algorithm is included in this

package.
