RsyncProject Rsync是RsyncProject组织开源的一款速度快、功能极其强大的文件复制工具，可用于复制远程文件和本地文件。 RsyncProject Rsync 3.5.0之前版本存在后置链接漏洞，该漏洞源于路径遍历问题，恶意发送者可在--relative模式下通过构造包含符号链接组件的相对路径，使make_path()函数在创建中间目录时跟随指向目标目录外部的符号链接，未验证路径是否保持在目标边界内，从而将文件写入预期目标目录之外，导致任意文件写入。

Vulnerability Title
rsync < 3.5.0 Path Traversal Write Escape via --relative Mode
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
rsync before 3.5.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows a malicious sender to write files outside the intended destination directory tree by crafting relative paths with symlink components in --relative mode. The make_path() function follows symlinks pointing outside the destination tree while creating intermediate directories without verifying that created paths remain within the destination boundary, enabling arbitrary file writes on the receiver's filesystem.
