This means that the symlinks - values will now be accepted (and returned) with all their symlink info - intact. Also, in order to keep things safe, any option that tells a - non-chroot daemon to treat some symlinks as their referent (such as - --copy-links or --keep-dirlinks) now manually checks the symlink chain - to ensure that the symlinks do not try to escape past the top of the - module's path. This makes a non-chroot daemon behave the same as a - chroot daemon with regard to symlinks, and also avoids a potential - problem where pre-existing symlinks could have escaped the module's - hierarchy. - - - Fixed a overzealous sanitizing bug in the handling of the --*-dest - options (--link-dest, --copy-dest, and --compare-dest): if the copy's - destination dir is deeper than the top of the module's path, these - options now accept a safe number of ../ (parent-dir) references (since - these options are relative to the destination dir). The old code - incorrectly chopped off all "../" prefixes for these options, no matter - how deep the destination directory was in the hierarchy. - - - Fixed a bug where a deferred info/error/log message could get sent - directly to the sender instead of being handled by rwrite() in the - generator. This fixes an "unexpected tag 3" fatal error, and should - also fix a potential problem where a deferred info/error message from - the receiver might bypass the log file and get sent only to the client - process. (These problems could only affect an rsync daemon that was - receiving files.) - - - Make sure that the --link-dest option can still do its job even when -I - or --size-only is specified. - - - The daemon now calls more timezone-using functions prior to doing a - chroot. + - ...
