Echo: rclone: security update to 1.75.2

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478400

Description

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

 - rclone from 1.55.0 before 1.75.2 contains a signature verification bypass in stable selfupdate that trusts
 checksums from unsigned bytes preceding the PGP-clearsigned SHA256SUMS block. Attackers controlling the
 release distribution path can prepend an unsigned checksum line matching a malicious archive, causing
 selfupdate to install an attacker-controlled rclone executable. (CVE-2026-116189)

Solution

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