CVE-2017-17434 severity moderate: SUSE including 6 source package names (rsync, rsync-3.0.4-2.48.4.1, rsync-3.0.4-2.53.3.1, rsync-3.1.0-13.13.3, rsync-3.1.0-13.7.1, rsync-3.1.3-1.19), 19 product×package rows across 16 product lines (SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 SP2, SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 SP3, … (16 product lines)): Fixed 16, Known Not Affected 3.
The daemon in rsync 3.1.2, and 3.1.3-development before 2017-12-03, does not check for fnamecmp filenames in the daemon_filter_list data structure (in the recv_files function in receiver.c) and also does not apply the sanitize_paths protection mechanism to pathnames found in "xname follows" strings (in the read_ndx_and_attrs function in rsync.c), which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.
