Echo: rclone: security update to 1.75.2-1

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478391

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 1.74.4, with -l/--links, rclone serializes symlinks as .rclonelink text objects and
 recreates them on a local destination without validating the target, allowing an attacker-controlled
 remote to plant an escaping symlink and cause a following object write to land outside the destination
 with attacker-chosen contents. This issue is fixed in version 1.74.4. (CVE-2026-54572)

Solution

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