+Subject: [PATCH] xattrs: fixed count in qsort
+
+this fixes the count passed to the sort of the xattr list. This issue
+was reported here:
+
+https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2026/04/16/2
+
+the bug is not exploitable due to the fork-per-connection design of
+rsync, the attack is the equivalent of the user closing the socket
+themselves.
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-41035
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/commit/bb0a8118c2d2ab01140bac5e4e327e5e1ef90c9c]
