New rsync Released to Fix Vulnerability 226
cshields2 writes "Today the rsync developers have released a new version that fixes an exploitable security vulnerability when running rsync as an 'rsync server.' Any server out there running rsync should check this out and upgrade if necessary. (which is every open source mirror server out there, and many mirrors themselves)"

rsync releases a patch and changes its name to r'sync. The change is noted to increase its name recognition in the teenybopper script kiddie market. At this point, no pimply-faced l337 d00dz will dare deface r'sync for fear that they will be further alienated by the female species.
Unfortunately, timberlake and FatOne continue to be backdoored.
