CVE-2026-70464 is an allocation-of-resources-without-limits vulnerability in the rsync daemon in rsync 2.0.0 through 3.4.4. An unauthenticated remote peer can retain daemon connection slots during the protocol handshake by stalling before module selection, a phase for which no timeout applies, or by trickling handshake data slowly enough to avoid the I/O timeout after module selection. Opening sufficient concurrent stalled connections exhausts the daemon's available connection slots.
