Original description
The description as published by the source.
rclone before v1.75.0 contains a denial of service vulnerability in the WebDAV TUS creation handler that dereferences a nil response before checking for transport errors. A malicious or compromised configured endpoint can reset connections during TUS uploads to trigger a panic that terminates unrecovered goroutines and halts unrelated work in long-lived processes.
