Echo: rclone: security update to 1.75.2-1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478388

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - rclone is a command-line program to sync files and directories to and from different cloud storage
 providers. Prior to 1.75.0, a valid but nondefault FTP filename encoding in backend/ftp/ftp.go can restore
 raw CR/LF immediately before an attacker-controlled path is interpolated into the line-oriented FTP
 control channel, and github.com/jlaffaye/ftp formats the argument through textproto.Conn.Cmd without
 rejecting CR or LF, allowing a filename such as victim CRLF DELE other-secret CRLF NOOP to inject an
 independent authenticated FTP command when the victim copies or syncs to a more-privileged FTP
 destination. This issue is fixed in 1.75.0. (CVE-2026-71311)

Solution

Update the rclone library and its related packages to version 1.75.2-1 or later.
