Description (CNA)
rsync before 3.5.0 contains a symlink race condition vulnerability in the --remove-source-files feature that allows attackers with symlink creation access to cause arbitrary file deletion. Attackers can atomically substitute a symlink for a source file between transfer completion and the unlink() call, causing rsync to delete the symlink target rather than the intended source file.
Affected (CNA)
| Vendor / product | Versions |
|---|---|
| RsyncProject / rsync | affected 0 through 3.4.4; unaffected 3.5.0 |
