An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-41176 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/rclone/rclone (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.73.5\n- github.com/rclone/rclone (Go): affected from 1.45.0; fixed in 1.73.5\n- github.com/rclone/rclone (Go): affected from 1.45.0; fixed in 1.73.5\n- rclone (Bitnami): affected from 1.45.0; fixed in 1.73.5\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41176/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41176/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-41176","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41176/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-41176","record":{"aliases":["BIT-rclone-2026-41176","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-41176","GHSA-25qr-6mpr-f7qx","GO-2026-4964","JLSEC-2026-280","MINI-4jx4-487c-p5vr","MINI-5fcg-rj94-c36p","MINI-5m24-49v2-qmx9","MINI-69fx-44cp-pmjx","MINI-98m4-mrmr-q6fp","MINI-gpw4-38v6-q4mc","ROOT-APP-GOBINARY-CVE-2026-41176","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-41176"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Cloud storage sync tool","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can disable RC authentication to access administrative functions and execute commands on exposed rclone servers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"rclone","vendor":"rclone"}],"cvss":{"score":9.2,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-15","name":"External Control of System or Configuration Setting"},{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"}],"description":"Rclone is a command-line program to sync files and directories to and from different cloud storage providers. The RC endpoint `options/set` is exposed without `AuthRequired: true`, but it can mutate global runtime configuration, including the RC option block itself. Starting in version 1.45.0 and prior to version 1.73.5, an unauthenticated attacker can set `rc.NoAuth=true`, which disables the authorization gate for many RC methods registered with `AuthRequired: true` on reachable RC servers that are started without global HTTP authentication. This can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive administrative functionality, including configuration and operational RC methods. Version 1.73.5 patches the issue.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2026/CVE-2026-41176.yaml","stars":null,"title":"Rclone RC - Broken Access Control"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Rclone: Unauthenticated options/set allows runtime auth bypass, leading to sensitive operations and command execution","id":"CVE-2026-41176","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Squidex has Blind SSRF via file:// Protocol in Restore API leading to Local File Interaction","id":"CVE-2026-41177"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["1.73.5"],"introduced":["1.45.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rclone","purl":"pkg:bitnami/rclone","source":"BIT-rclone-2026-41176"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.73.5"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/rclone/rclone","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/rclone/rclone","source":"GO-2026-4964"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.73.5"],"introduced":["1.45.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/rclone/rclone","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-25qr-6mpr-f7qx"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.73.5"],"introduced":["1.45.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/rclone/rclone","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/rclone/rclone","source":"GHSA-25qr-6mpr-f7qx"}],"prev":{"headline":"Statamic: Unsafe method invocation via query value resolution allows data destruction","id":"CVE-2026-41175"},"products":["rclone"],"published":"2026-04-22","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"rclone serve s3: --auth-proxy without --auth-key authenticates nobody - full SigV4 signature bypass","id":"CVE-2026-88018","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Rclone: Unauthenticated command execution in `rclone rcd --rc-serve` via inline remote instantiation, bypassing CVE-2026-41179 fix","id":"CVE-2026-49980","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-24"},{"cvss_score":9.2,"headline":"RClone: Unauthenticated operations/fsinfo allows attacker-controlled backend instantiation and local command execution","id":"CVE-2026-41179","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"rclone `serve restic --private-repos` authorization bypass: `..` in the URL path lets an authenticated user read, overwrite and delete other users' repositories","id":"CVE-2026-59733","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-14"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Rclone before 1.75.2 Path Traversal via serve webdav MKCOL","id":"CVE-2026-116191","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-25"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"rclone from 1.37 before 1.74.2 SSRF via --rc-serve scheme-relative remote roots","id":"CVE-2026-116192","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-25"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-15","vendors":["rclone"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can disable RC authentication to access administrative functions and execute commands on exposed rclone servers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41176/"}
