Hi,
I'd like to make a stable upload for rsyslog.
The changelog reads:
* omfwd regression fix: avoid false active target change log message.
Patch backported from upstream Git. (Closes: #1141981)
* imptcp: reject invalid regex-framing recovery transitions.
(CVE-2026-19654, Closes: #1144616)
The patches are as minimal as possible to minimize the regression
potential.
CVE-2026-19654 / #1144616 was filed by the security team. We concluded
to fix this via a stable upload.
Regards
Michael

+Subject: imptcp: guard regex framing match at line start
+
+Why
+A regex match at the beginning of the receive buffer can form a
+negative message length after oversize-frame recovery.
+
+Impact
+Regex-framed imptcp listeners reject that invalid transition instead
+of submitting a negative message length.
+
+Before/After
+Before: a match with a zero line offset submitted an invalid length.
+After: only a match following an existing line can submit a frame.
+
+Technical Overview
+Mirror the line-offset guard used by the shared imtcp parser.
+Leave existing regex framing and oversize recovery behavior unchanged.

+Subject: omfwd regression fix: avoid false active target change log message
+
+Commit ffaf6dc4620da added proper variable sync, but dropped the check
+if active count had actually changed. As such, the output was always
+generated, which could pollute the log heavily.
+
+Code style fixes where dropped for the backport.
+
