Affected
RsyncProject rsync
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

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 3.1.0至3.5.0之前版本存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于I/O超时实现存在有符号整数溢出，攻击者可通过注入带有非正值的MSG_IO_TIMEOUT消息导致超时变量回绕为非正值，从而永久禁用连接超时，使空闲或停滞连接无限期占用守护进程槽位，导致资源耗尽。

Vulnerability Title
rsync 3.1.0 < 3.5.0 Signed Integer Overflow via MSG_IO_TIMEOUT
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
rsync 3.1.0 before 3.5.0 contains a signed integer overflow vulnerability in the I/O timeout implementation that allows attackers to permanently disable connection timeouts by injecting MSG_IO_TIMEOUT messages carrying non-positive (zero or negative) values. Attackers can craft malicious MSG_IO_TIMEOUT messages that cause the timeout variable to wrap to a non-positive value, preventing the timeout check from firing and enabling idle or stalled connections to hold daemon slots indefinitely, leading to resource exhaustion.
