Network-reachable but requires a malicious server plus the non-default --safe-links client option, so AC:H; only arbitrary file write, hence C:N/I:H/A:N.

DescriptionNVD

A 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.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary file write outside the intended destination in rsync's client-side --safe-links handling allows a malicious or compromised rsync server to bypass the symlink safety check via a path-traversal flaw (CWE-22). The client fails to recursively verify whether a symbolic-link target supplied by the server itself contains a nested symlink, so a controlled server can place files anywhere the rsync process can write. A detailed advisory was published by Google's security-research team (GHSA-p5pg-x43v-mvqj) as part of the January 2025 rsync vulnerability cluster, but the issue is not in CISA KEV and no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is moderate at 2.89% (86th percentile).
