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-2026-41179 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/rclone/rclone (Go): affected from 1.48.0; fixed in 1.73.5\n- github.com/rclone/rclone (Go): affected from 1.48.0; fixed in 1.73.5\n- github.com/rclone/rclone (Go): affected from 1.49.0; fixed in 1.73.5\n- rclone (Bitnami): affected from 1.48.0; fixed in 1.73.5\n- github.com/ncw/rclone (Go): affected from 1.48.0; no fix listed\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-2026-41179/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41179/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-41179","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41179/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-41179","record":{"aliases":["BIT-rclone-2026-41179","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-41179","GHSA-jfwf-28xr-xw6q","GO-2026-5466","JLSEC-2026-281","MINI-967h-wf84-m7j9","MINI-ch97-5xqr-wppj","MINI-hx4p-pmg5-wvh8","MINI-mpq7-hrvr-mmqw","MINI-mqvp-j5fx-xqj7","MINI-pq38-q77g-hx95","ROOT-APP-GOBINARY-CVE-2026-41179","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-41179"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Cloud storage sync tool","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute local commands via the operations/fsinfo endpoint if the RC server is enabled without global authentication.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"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-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"},{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"},{"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. Starting in version 1.48.0 and prior to version 1.73.5, the RC endpoint `operations/fsinfo` is exposed without `AuthRequired: true` and accepts attacker-controlled `fs` input. Because `rc.GetFs(...)` supports inline backend definitions, an unauthenticated attacker can instantiate an attacker-controlled backend on demand. For the WebDAV backend, `bearer_token_command` is executed during backend initialization, making single-request unauthenticated local command execution possible on reachable RC deployments without global HTTP authentication. Version 1.73.5 patches the issue.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-06-28","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":1,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2026-06-28T11:58:59Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/pssec-io/CVE-2026-41179","stars":1,"title":"POC for CVE-2026-41179"},{"date":"2026-07-27T04:13:43Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/s-vx/CVE-2026-41179","stars":0,"title":"RCE in rclone"},{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2026/CVE-2026-41179.yaml","stars":null,"title":"RClone RC - Command Injection"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"RClone: Unauthenticated operations/fsinfo allows attacker-controlled backend instantiation and local command execution","id":"CVE-2026-41179","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2026"},"n_packages":5,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"PsiTransfer: Upload PATCH path traversal can create `config.\u003cNODE_ENV\u003e.js` and lead to code execution on restart","id":"CVE-2026-41180"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["1.73.5"],"introduced":["1.48.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rclone","purl":"pkg:bitnami/rclone","source":"BIT-rclone-2026-41179"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["1.48.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/ncw/rclone","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/ncw/rclone","source":"GO-2026-5466"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.73.5"],"introduced":["1.48.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/rclone/rclone","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-jfwf-28xr-xw6q"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.73.5"],"introduced":["1.48.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/rclone/rclone","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/rclone/rclone","source":"GHSA-jfwf-28xr-xw6q"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.73.5"],"introduced":["1.49.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/rclone/rclone","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/rclone/rclone","source":"GO-2026-5466"}],"prev":{"headline":"OpenTelemetry-Go's baggage parsing no longer caps raw header length","id":"CVE-2026-41178"},"products":["rclone"],"published":"2026-04-23","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 options/set allows runtime auth bypass, leading to sensitive operations and command execution","id":"CVE-2026-41176","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"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"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-15","vendors":["rclone"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute local commands via the operations/fsinfo endpoint if the RC server is enabled without global authentication.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-41179/"}
