CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

Upgrade RHEL:8 rsync-daemon to version 0:3.1.3-14.el8_6.5 or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2024:0254.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rsync-daemon package and not the rsync-daemon package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

zlib through 1.2.12 has a heap-based buffer over-read or buffer overflow in inflate in inflate.c via a large gzip header extra field. NOTE: only applications that call inflateGetHeader are affected. Some common applications bundle the affected zlib source code but may be unable to call inflateGetHeader (e.g., see the nodejs/node reference).
