  This is off-tpoic, but of interest.
  There's a remote exploit bug on rsync, that was posted on Linux Today.
  I post this here because apparently it hasn't been mentioned (yet) on 
  the
  Debian security advisory. The package list is not updated either.
 
 Because is appears that the upstream patch is not addressing the problem.
 
  Perhaps this is what happened to CRAN when it was cracked...
  Maybe you admins at CRAN would want to contact the debian-security list.
 
 I appreciate your concern, but I don't really think that this is the forum
 for Debian-only questions.
