Synopsis
rsync bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated rsync package that fixes a bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The rsync tool is used to copy and synchronize files locally or across a
network. The rsync works very fast because it uses delta encoding and sends just
differences in files instead of whole files. The rsync is also used as powerful
mirroring tool.
This updated rsync package fixes the following bug:
- Previously, the rsync tool did not check whether the inbuf variable is
non-empty. As a consequence, rsync terminated unexpectedly while trying to do
the required encoding in a loop. With this update, rsync checks whether inbuf is
non-empty and no longer crashes in the described scenario. (BZ#1022355)
Users of rsync are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this
bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
