The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when using "--inc-recursive" option. A remote attacker can can trick the victim into connecting to a rouge rsync server and write arbitrary files to arbitrary locations on the client system.
2) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-12088)
CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a race condition when handling symbolic links. A local user can replace a file with a symbolic link, bypass implemented protection in rsync that prevents software from following symbolic links and read contents of arbitrary files on the system with elevated privileges.
