Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the rsync package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - The recv_files function in receiver.c in the daemon in rsync 3.1.2, and 3.1.3-development before 2017-12-03, proceeds with certain file metadata updates before checking for a filename in the daemon_filter_list data structure, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.(CVE-2017-17433)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
