CVE-2019-3463
Insufficient sanitization of arguments passed to rsync can bypass the restrictions imposed by rssh, a restricted shell that should restrict users to perform only rsync operations, resulting in the execution of arbitrary shell commands.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.87%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Insufficient sanitization of arguments passed to rsync can bypass the restrictions imposed by rssh, a restricted shell that should restrict users to perform only rsync operations, resulting in the execution of arbitrary shell commands.
