rclone is a problem to sync files to and from various cloud storage providers.

Passwords generated with rclone were insecurely generated and are vulnerable to brute force attacks.

Data kept secret with a password generated by rclone may be disclosed to a local attacker.

There is no known workaround at this time.

All rclone users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/rclone-1.53.3"
