GHSA-66hp-wgxq-6f5q: github.com/rclone/rclone (CVE-2026-88014)

Package	Ecosystem	Affected	Fixed in
github.com/rclone/rclone	Go	>=1.72.0, <1.75.1	1.75.1

Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Versions 1.72.0 up to but not including 1.75.1 of the Go package github.com/rclone/rclone are affected. A specially crafted zip file with entry names that escape the archive's own namespace can cause rclone copy or sync to write files outside the intended destination directory, so a user must open or copy an untrusted zip file. Upgrade to rclone 1.75.1, which skips such entries. The source gives few details about any workaround.
