SCA: security update for github.com/rclone/rclone (GHSA-38xv-hf3p-h7mq)
medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 447916
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 1.75.1, rclone core does not reject parent-directory segments in source
Object.Remote() values before fs/list, fs/walk, fs/sync, and fs/operations pass those values to
destination backends. A flat-keyspace source object store populated with native non-rclone tooling can
contain a raw .. key segment, and affected b2, swift, qingstor, oracleobjectstorage, internetarchive, smb,
storj, sftp, webdav, ftp, filelu, shade, and sia destinations use path.Join(root, remote) before EncodeDot
can neutralize the segment. A copy or upload can therefore escape the configured root into another bucket,
share, or path reachable by the victim credential, with sftp and smb potentially reaching other filesystem
or share locations under the same login authority. This issue is fixed in version 1.75.1. (CVE-2026-88046)
Solution
Update the github.com/rclone/rclone library and its related packages to version 1.75.1 or later.See Also
