Summary: Buffer overflow when sending a file with long name
Product: rsync
Version: 3.0.7
Platform: All
URL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=557916
OS/Version: Linux
I have a strange problem on OS X server. I start the rsync daemon manually
using
su
rsync --daemon
(or sudo rsync --daemon)
and it works for a while. But eventually, when people try to connect, they get
an "invalid uid" error. The uid is the once specified in the profile in
rsyncd.conf .
I've noticed a weirdness in rsync.
Let me explain it briefly with an example.
Below is a test script:
#!/bin/sh
cat >rsyncd.conf < strace -fe bind ./test.sh
...
[pid 7279] bind(4, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(0),
sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.0.0")}, 16) = 0
...
Is this a bug or am I misunderst
do you mean this?
auth users = non-exist user?
