Echo: rclone: security update to 1.75.2-1

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 478376

Description

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

- rclone before 1.74.4 fails to mask special permission bits when applying source-supplied mode metadata in
the local backend, allowing attackers to set setuid/setgid bits on attacker-controlled files. When copying
with metadata preservation from an untrusted remote, attackers can plant a setuid binary that escalates
privileges to root if rclone runs as root, or to the service account user otherwise. (CVE-2026-79783)

Solution

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