CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

Rclone versions prior to 1.75.0 are vulnerable due to the pprof debug handler being improperly mounted, allowing unauthenticated access to the /debug/pprof/cmdline endpoint. This exposure can lead to the disclosure of sensitive information, including backend credentials. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to mitigate the risk of credential theft and unauthorized access.

Original NVD Description

rclone before 1.75.0 mounts the pprof debug handler as its own router route, bypassing the fail-closed authentication rule in the main handler. Attackers can access the /debug/pprof/cmdline endpoint unauthenticated to retrieve the full process argv including backend credentials.
