rsync 3.4.0 has been released with a lot of security fixes https://download.samba.org/pub/rsync/NEWS#3.4.0
From a first glance it looks like there are also security fixes in older versions after 3.1.3.

These fixes should be cherry picked.
Is there a general plan forward? Maybe it is a good idea to rebase all the commits against rsync upstream git for easier maintenance in the future.

Note also that one of the fixes introduced a regression for --hard-links, which is heavily used in backups. It is fixed here: RsyncProject/rsync#705
