Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2003:111 (rsync)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to rsync announced via advisory MDKSA-2003:111. A vulnerability was discovered in all versions of rsync prior to 2.5.7 that was recently used in conjunction with the Linux kernel do_brk() vulnerability to compromise a public rsync server. This heap overflow vulnerability, by itself, cannot yield root access, however it does allow arbitrary code execution on the host running rsync as a server. Also note that this only affects hosts running rsync in server mode (listening on port 873, typically under xinetd). Affected versions: 9.0, 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1, Multi Network Firewall 8.2 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. https://secure1.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2003:111 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2003-0962 http://rsync.samba.org/index.html Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5
