CVE-2019-7282  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-281  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:6 rsh.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rsh package and not the rsh package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

In NetKit through 0.17, rcp.c in the rcp client allows remote rsh servers to bypass intended access restrictions via the filename of . or an empty filename. The impact is modifying the permissions of the target directory on the client side. This is similar to CVE-2018-20685.
