CVE-2026-53786

rsync before 3.5.0 contains a filter rule bypass vulnerability that allows authenticated clients to override module-level filter restrictions by supplying malicious --filter merge file directives. Attackers can inject client-side merge file directives during filter evaluation to introduce rules that supersede daemon module-level restrictions, gaining access to files the module filter was intended to exclude.

Rsync is an open source utility that provides fast incremental file transfer. It uses the "rsync algorithm" which provides a very fast method for bringing remote files into sync. It does this by sending just the differences in the files across the link, without requiring that both sets of files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand.

Security Fix(es):

Rsync version 3.4.2 and prior contain symlink race condition vulnerabilities in path-based system calls including chmod, lchown, utimes, rename, unlink, mkdir, symlink, mknod, link, rmdir, and lstat that allow local attackers to redirect operations to files outside the exported rsync module. Attackers with local filesystem access can exploit the timing window between path resolution and syscall execution by swapping symlinks to apply sender-supplied permissions, ownership, timestamps, or filenames to arbitrary files outside the intended module boundary on rsync daemons configured with 'use chroot = no'.(CVE-2026-43619)

rsync before 3.5.0 contains a time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition vulnerability in the rrsync restricted shell wrapper that allows authenticated clients to escape enforced directory restrictions by substituting a symlink for a path component after validation but before transfer processing. Attackers can additionally leverage unrestricted flags such as --copy-unsafe-links, -D, and --log-file through rrsync to read or write files outside the permitted directory subtree.(CVE-2026-53783)

rsync before 3.5.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows remote clients to access files outside the intended module root when use chroot is disabled and the module root path or a component of it is a symlink. The daemon calls chdir() to the module root at session initialization without resolving symlinks via realpath() or equivalent, causing subsequent relative-path operations to reference files relative to the symlink target rather than the intended module root, enabling unauthorized file access.(CVE-2026-53784)

rsync before 3.5.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows a malicious sender to write files outside the intended destination directory tree by crafting relative paths with symlink components in --relative mode. The make_path() function follows symlinks pointing outside the destination tree while creating intermediate directories without verifying that created paths remain within the destination boundary, enabling arbitrary file writes on the receiver's filesystem.(CVE-2026-53785)

Attackers can inject client-side merge file directives during filter evaluation to introduce rules that supersede daemon module-level restrictions, gaining access to files the module filter was intended to exclude.(CVE-2026-53786)

rsync before 3.5.0 contains a newline injection vulnerability in the name-converter uid/gid mapping interface that allows local attackers to forge protocol messages by creating user or group names containing newline characters. Attackers can inject malicious newline characters into names communicated over the pipe-based line-oriented protocol to cause the rsync daemon to process attacker-influenced data as legitimate protocol input, corrupting uid/gid mapping logic.(CVE-2026-53788)

rsync before 3.5.0 contains an improper path handling vulnerability that allows a malicious sender to expand the scope of --delete operations beyond the intended destination subtree by sending a crafted file list that causes rsync to reclassify implied parent directory entries or treat synthetic paths as the transfer root. Attackers can exploit multiple variants including implied parent reclassification, synthetic root path construction, legacy protocol behavior below version 30, and…

  • CVE-2026-70463
• SECURITY UPDATE: daemon filter-merge bypass of the module filter list
  • debian/patches/CVE-2026-53786.patch: strip module_dirlen from an absolute --filter merge path in parse_filter_file() in exclude.c before checking it against daemon_filter_list, so an anchored module-relative daemon rule matches, and treat a merge file hidden by the daemon filter as non-existent instead of a fatal error
  • CVE-2026-53786
• SECURITY UPDATE: daemon NULL dereference on a non-directory transfer root
  • debian/patches/CVE-2026-70459.patch: reject a "." or "/." transfer-root entry that is not a directory in recv_file_entry() in flist.c, instead of dereferencing it as a directory structure pointer, and require dir_flist to actually hold an entry in recv_file_list() before trusting parent_ndx 0, closing the second route to the same uninitialised dir_flist->files[0]
  • CVE-2026-70459
• SECURITY UPDATE: --delete scope widening via implied-parent reclassification
  • debian/patches/CVE-2026-53789.patch: add is_implied_parent_dir() to exclude.c and use it in recv_file_entry() in flist.c to force an implied parent directory back to the honest XMIT_TOP_DIR|XMIT_NO_CONTENT_DIR encoding, so it lands in FLAG_IMPLIED_DIR and delete_in_dir() cannot sweep pre-existing siblings; also covers the synthetic transfer-root entry and the legacy protocol < 30 XMIT_TOP_DIR path
  • CVE-2026-53789

• SECURITY UPDATE: "auth users" authorization bypass on entries containing a space
  • debian/patches/CVE-2026-70463.patch: parse the "auth users" value with conf_strtok() in auth_server(), so the documented leading-comma form splits on commas alone and an "@Group Name:deny" entry is no longer torn in two -- discarding the deny rule and creating an implicit allow rule from its first word; import conf_strtok() into util.c, which this version does not yet carry; document the leading-comma form in rsyncd.conf.yo and in the pre-generated rsyncd.conf.5 (this tree ships no yodl2man, so only the .5 is installed), without which an admin is never told the form that activates the fix; and add testsuite/cve-2026-70463.test
  • CVE-2026-70463
• SECURITY UPDATE: daemon filter-merge bypass of the module filter list
  • debian/patches/CVE-2026-53786.patch: in parse_filter_file(), strip the module_dir prefix that parse_merge_name() prepended before checking a client-supplied --filter merge file against daemon_filter_list, so the anchored module-relative daemon rule can match; the strip is conditional on the prefix really being present so the daemon's own "include from" / "exclude from" and get_cvs_excludes() paths are not truncated; upstream's early return on a daemon-filter hit is deliberately not taken, since without v3.5.0's daemon_config_filter_file exemption it would silently drop the operator's own "include from" / "exclude from" rules and, without v3.5.0's name+errno suppression, would leave hidden merge files silent while missing ones stay fatal; add testsuite/cve-2026-53786.test
  • CVE-2026-53786
• SECURITY UPDATE: daemon NULL dereference on a non-directory first file-list entry
  • debian/patches/CVE-2026-70459.patch: reject a "." or "/." transfer-root entry whose mode is not a directory in recv_file_entry(), and require dir_flist to actually hold an entry in recv_file_list() before trusting parent_ndx 0, closing the wild-pointer read that crashes the per-connection daemon child
  • CVE-2026-70459
• SECURITY UPDATE: --delete scope widening via implied-parent reclassification
  • debian/patches/CVE-2026-53789.patch: add is_implied_parent_dir() to exclude.c and use it in recv_file_entry() to force an implied parent back to the honest XMIT_TOP_DIR | XMIT_NO_CONTENT_DIR encoding, on both the protocol >= 30 and the legacy protocol < 30 paths, so it lands in FLAG_IMPLIED_DIR and delete_in_dir() cannot sweep pre-existing siblings outside the intended destination subtree
  • debian/patches/CVE-2022-29154-2.patch: drop the trailing slash in add_implied_include(), completing the upstream CVE-2022-29154 series this branch carries, so a "src/dir/" argument seeds the requested leaf as a plain include rule instead of a FILTRULE_DIRECTORY one; without it is_implied_parent_dir() would classify the explicitly requested directory as an implied parent and --delete would stop pruning it
  • CVE-2026-53789

• CVE-2026-53786: strip the module dir back off a --filter merge file path before the daemon_filter_list check so an anchored module-relative daemon rule matches and a hidden merge file cannot be pulled in
• CVE-2026-53795: confine each side of do_rename_at() and do_link_at() independently so an absolute --temp-dir or --link-dest cannot switch off confinement and redirect the final rename out of the destination tree

• CVE-2026-70459: guard the parent_ndx consumer against an empty dir_flist so a crafted first incremental file list cannot reach an uninitialised heap slot (already blocked in els11 by the CVE-2026-53789 transfer-root rejection; added as defence in depth to match upstream's final state)
• CVE-2026-70463: parse "auth users" with conf_strtok so the documented leading-comma form splits on commas alone; whitespace splitting tore an entry containing a space in two, so a :deny rule naming such a group never fired
• CVE-2026-53798: reject an empty or non-numeric name-converter response instead of letting atol("") map an unknown name to uid/gid 0
