CVE-2026-59732 Details
Description
Rclone is a command-line program to sync files and directories to and from different cloud storage providers. Prior to 1.74.4, rclone archive extract can write extracted files outside the user-selected destination prefix when extracting a crafted archive containing parent path components such as ../, allowing creation or overwrite of sibling objects in the same bucket or path scope. This issue is fixed in version 1.74.4.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in Rclone's archive extraction feature, prior to version 1.74.4. The issue allows crafted archive entries to escape the designated extraction prefix, potentially overwriting or creating files in the same bucket or path scope on the destination remote. This vulnerability arises because the extraction process does not properly validate archive entry names, allowing parent path components to be exploited.
Users can upgrade to Rclone version 1.74.4 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
