Red Hat Security Advisory 2011-0999-01 - rsync is a program for synchronizing files over a network. A flaw was found in the way the rsync daemon handled the "filter", "exclude", and "exclude from" options, used for hiding files and preventing access to them from rsync clients. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass those restrictions by using certain command line options and symbolic links, allowing the attacker to overwrite those files if they knew their file names and had write access to them.

Unspecified vulnerability in rsync before 3.0.0pre6, when running a writable rsync daemon, allows remote attackers to bypass exclude, exclude_from, and filter and read or write hidden files via (1) symlink, (2) partial-dir, (3) backup-dir, and unspecified (4) dest options.
