| CVE-2024-12084 | Jan 15, 2025 |
rsync Daemon Heap Bof via Checksum Length OverrunA heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the rsync daemon. This issue is due to improper handling of attacker-controlled checksum lengths (s2length) in the code. When MAX_DIGEST_LEN exceeds the fixed SUM_LENGTH (16 bytes), an attacker can write out of bounds in the sum2 buffer. |

| CVE-2024-12088 | Jan 14, 2025 |
Rsync --safe-links Path Traversal, Arbitrary File WriteA flaw was found in rsync. When using the `--safe-links` option, the rsync client fails to properly verify if a symbolic link destination sent from the server contains another symbolic link within it. This results in a path traversal vulnerability, which may lead to arbitrary file write outside the desired directory. |
