      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Rex&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rex versions through 1.16.1 for Perl accept an unknown SSH host key for remote rsync transfers because sync hardcodes StrictHostKeyChecking=no.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Every remote branch of sync builds its ssh command with that option, for password authentication, for private-key authentication and for the fallback. The ssh options a caller sets through set_openssh_opt reach the OpenSSH transport but not this command, so there is no configuration that restores host key checking for the transfer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An attacker who can redirect the connection before the real host key is known presents their own and the transfer proceeds: under password authentication sync sends the connection password to that server, an upload writes the selected local files to it, and a download writes what it returns to the local destination.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
