{"id":"BIT-rclone-2026-71312","summary":"rclone: PowerShell Smart-Quote Filename Injection Enables SFTP Server-Side Command Execution","details":"rclone is a command-line program to sync files and directories to and from different cloud storage providers. Prior to v1.75.0, rclone interpolates remote SFTP paths into PowerShell hash commands in backend/sftp/sftp.go, and quoteOrEscapeShellPath escapes only ASCII apostrophe even though PowerShell treats U+2018, U+2019, U+201A, and U+201B as single-quote delimiters, allowing an attacker-controlled filename to terminate the intended path literal and append PowerShell statements that execute as the victim SSH account when server-side hashing is invoked. This issue is fixed in v1.75.0.","aliases":["CVE-2026-71312","GHSA-2m8m-jhrm-w6j2","GO-2026-6182"],"modified":"2026-08-18T17:26:06.129470123Z","published":"2026-08-17T05:53:33.868Z","database_specific":{"cpes":["cpe:2.3:a:rclone:rclone:*:*:*:*:*:go:*:*"],"severity":"High"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rclone/rclone/commit/e122fba1a57641b63a580aa26c026903a84e2e88"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rclone/rclone/releases/tag/v1.75.0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rclone/rclone/security/advisories/GHSA-2m8m-jhrm-w6j2"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-71312"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"rclone","ecosystem":"Bitnami","purl":"pkg:bitnami/rclone"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.75.0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/bitnami/vulndb/tree/main/data/rclone/BIT-rclone-2026-71312.json"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
