High [CVE-2026-70452] rsync 3.1.0 < 3.5.0 Access Control Bypass via DNS Resolution Failure
CVE-2026-70452Source published Source updated
rsync 3.1.0 before 3.5.0 contains an access control bypass vulnerability that allows remote attackers to circumvent hosts deny rules by inducing DNS resolution failures during hostname-based access control evaluation. When a DNS lookup for a hostname-based deny rule fails, the daemon skips the rule rather than defaulting to a deny decision, enabling attackers who can trigger DNS failures to bypass module-level IP access controls and gain unauthorized access to restricted module file trees. A flaw was found in rsync. Red Hat severity: Important — CVSS 7.4 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N). Weakness: CWE-636. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat OpenShift Container…

- Mitigation guidance
- To mitigate this issue, configure rsync to use IP-based access controls instead of hostname-based rules in `rsyncd.conf`. Alternatively, restrict network access to the rsync daemon using firewall rules to allow connections only from trusted IP addresses or networks. This limits exposure by preventing untrusted remote attackers from reaching the service and attempting to induce DNS resolution failures. If changes are made to `rsyncd.conf`, the rsync daemon may need to be restarted or reloaded for the changes to take effect.
