CVE-2017-16548 - log back

CVE-2017-16548 created at 25 Sep 2019 19:31:40
Severity	+ High
Remote	+ Remote
Type	+ Denial of service
Description	+ The receive_xattr function in xattrs.c in rsync 3.1.2 and 3.1.3-development does not check for a trailing '\0' character in an xattr name, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by sending crafted data to the daemon.
