CVE-2026-53796

Beschreibung

rsync before 3.5.0 contains a time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition vulnerability in the non-daemon receiver-s destination directory handling that allows an attacker who can manipulate destination path parent components to redirect file writes to unintended locations. Attackers can substitute a symlink for a component of the destination path between the path resolution and chdir() call, causing the receiver-s working directory to be established outside the intended destination tree so that subsequent relative-path file writes land in unintended filesystem locations.
