CVE-2026-79775— rclone Archive Backend SquashFS Parser Denial of Service

Quick assessment

Affected
rclone rclone
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

在 rclone 版本 >= v1.72.0 且 <= v1.74.4（v1.75.0 中已修复）中，其 archive 后端的 SquashFS 解析器存在多个导致拒绝服务（DoS）的漏洞。该解析器依赖于 github.com/diskfs/go-diskfs 库。解析器在使用之前未对攻击者控制的超级块（superblock）和元数据（metadata）值进行有效验证。 攻击者若能在通过 rclone 远程接口暴露的存储中放置或修改 SquashFS 镜像，即可构造恶意镜像，触发以下类型的漏洞： 1. 整数除以零

Vulnerability Title
rclone Archive Backend SquashFS Parser Denial of Service
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
rclone versions >= v1.72.0 and <= v1.74.4 (fixed in v1.75.0) contain multiple denial-of-service vulnerabilities in the archive backend's SquashFS parser, which relies on the github.com/diskfs/go-diskfs dependency. The parser fails to validate attacker-controlled superblock and metadata values before use. An attacker who can place or modify a SquashFS image in storage exposed through an rclone :archive: remote can craft a malicious image that triggers an integer division-by-zero panic (zero block size), an out-of-bounds slice panic (out-of-range inode metadata offset), or a non-progress CPU loop (truncated metadata stream). Variants 1 and 2 terminate the rclone process and, via 'rclone serve sftp', can crash the entire SFTP server; variant 3 causes sustained CPU consumption. Parsing is lazy, so a victim or remote client must address or descend into the malicious archive object to trigger it.
