Alpine: multiple rclone packages: security update to 1.67.0-r0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 426240

Description

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

 - An attacker may cause an HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data by sending an excessive
 number of CONTINUATION frames. Maintaining HPACK state requires parsing and processing all HEADERS and
 CONTINUATION frames on a connection. When a request's headers exceed MaxHeaderBytes, no memory is
 allocated to store the excess headers, but they are still parsed. This permits an attacker to cause an
 HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data, all associated with a request which is going to
 be rejected. These headers can include Huffman-encoded data which is significantly more expensive for the
 receiver to decode than for an attacker to send. The fix sets a limit on the amount of excess header
 frames we will process before closing a connection. (CVE-2023-45288)
