+  <title>rsync: Potential integer overflow</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    An attacker having write access to an rsync module might be able to execute
+    arbitrary code on an rsync server.

+    <p>
+    rsync is a server and client utility that provides fast
+    incremental file transfers. It is used to efficiently synchronize files
+    between hosts and is used by emerge to fetch Gentoo's Portage tree.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    An integer overflow was found in the receive_xattr function from
+    the extended attributes patch (xattr.c) for rsync. The vulnerable
+    function is only present when the "acl" USE flag is set.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker with write access to an rsync module could craft
+    malicious extended attributes which would trigger the integer overflow,
+    potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the
+    rights of the rsync daemon.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Do not provide write access to an rsync module to untrusted
+    parties.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All rsync users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/rsync-2.6.8"</code>
