RHSA-2026:19368 - Important: rsync security update
Synopsis
Important: rsync security update
Type/Severity
Security Advisory Important
Topic
An update for rsync is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Description
The rsync utility enables the users to copy and synchronize files locally or across a network. Synchronization with rsync is fast because rsync only sends the differences in files over the network instead of sending whole files. The rsync utility is also used as a mirroring tool.
Security Fix(es):
-
rsync: rsync server leaks arbitrary client files (CVE-2024-12086)
-
rsync: Rsync: Use-after-free vulnerability in extended attribute handling (CVE-2026-41035)
