SCA: security update for github.com/rclone/rclone (GHSA-2p48-j3qc-rx9f)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 447940

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. From 1.75.0 until 1.75.1, the serve S3 streamed multipart path in cmd/serve/s3/multipart.go
 passes attacker-controlled contentLength to multipart.NewRW().Reserve before reading request-body bytes.
 waitForTurn admits the current part and one oversized part when the buffer is empty despite --multipart-
 streaming-buffer-limit, and lib/pool allocates 1 MiB pages according to Content-Length or X-Amz-Decoded-
 Content-Length. A network client can retain or multiply these reservations without sending the declared
 body, exhausting process or host memory or permanently blocking request handlers. Anonymous S3 deployments
 require no credentials, while deployments using auth_key require an accepted S3 key. This issue is fixed
 in version 1.75.1. (CVE-2026-88045)

Solution

Update the github.com/rclone/rclone library and its related packages to version 1.75.1 or later.
