"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- rclone versions 1.56.0 through 1.75.0 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the `rclone serve docker`
volume plugin. newVolume() in cmd/serve/docker/volume.go computes a volume's mountpoint as
filepath.Join(drv.root, name) from the attacker-supplied `name` field of a Docker VolumeDriver.Create
request without verifying that the result stays within drv.root (default /var/lib/docker-volumes/rclone),
and checkMountpoint() then creates that directory with file.MkdirAll before mounting. A volume name
containing enough `..` components (e.g. ../../../../../../etc) therefore resolves outside the base
directory, allowing anyone able to submit a VolumeDriver.Create request to the plugin socket normally
the Docker daemon, or a workload that can request named volumes in a multi-tenant orchestration setup to
make the privileged rclone plugin process create a directory and mount a remote filesystem specified in
the same request at an arbitrary host path, shadowing or disrupting system directories. The advisory notes
Volume.restoreState() had the same missing validation when reloading persisted volume state. Fixed in
1.75.1. (CVE-2026-93987)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
