CVE-2026-53792

rsync before 3.5.0 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the sender-side block matching logic that allows a malicious receiver to trigger memory access before the start of an allocated buffer by sending a crafted checksum block with a length of zero. Attackers can send a specially crafted checksum set containing a zero-length block to cause a negative offset calculation during delta computation, resulting in an out-of-bounds read of file data buffer memory on the sender side.

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)

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.(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-2026-70454: require a CA certificate for the rsync-ssl stunnel and gnutls backends and bind the server certificate to the requested hostname
• CVE-2026-70464: bound the pre-transfer daemon handshake with a deadline, so unauthenticated peers can no longer hold connection slots open past max connections

• CVE-2026-53792: reject a peer-supplied checksum header with a non-zero block count and a zero block length, so a malicious receiver can no longer drive the sender's block matching into an out-of-bounds read
• CVE-2026-53796: resolve the non-daemon receiver's destination directory through the ownership-checked symlink walk and fchdir() instead of a plain chdir(), so a parent component raced to a symlink owned by another user can no longer move the receiver outside the intended destination
• CVE-2026-70452: fail closed when a "hosts deny" hostname token cannot be resolved, so a DNS lookup failure can no longer silently skip a deny rule and admit the host it was meant to block

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in rsync, a fast, versatile, remote (and local) file-copying tool, which could result in local privilege escalation, bypass of intended access restrictions, information disclosure, denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code.
