CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: rsync (CVE-2024-12086)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 214588

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of rsync installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-12086 advisory.

 - A flaw was found in rsync. It could allow a server to enumerate the contents of an arbitrary file from the client's machine. This issue occurs when files are being copied from a client to a server. During this process, the rsync server will send checksums of local data to the client to compare with in order to determine what data needs to be sent to the server. By sending specially constructed checksum values for arbitrary files, an attacker May be able to reconstruct the data of those files byte-by-byte based on the responses from the client. (CVE-2024-12086)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
