                     Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
     _______________________________________________________________________

     Package name: rsync
     Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:083
     Date: August 17th, 2004

     Affected versions: 10.0, 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
                             Multi Network Firewall 8.2
     ______________________________________________________________________

     Problem Description:

     An advisory was sent out by the rsync team regarding a security
     vulnerability in all versions of rsync prior to and including 2.6.2.
     If rsync is running in daemon mode, and not in a chrooted environment,
     it is possible for a remote attacker to trick rsyncd into creating an
     absolute pathname while sanitizing it. This vulnerability allows a
     remote attacker to possibly read/write to/from files outside of the
     rsync directory.
     
     The updated packages are patched to prevent this problem.
