USN-1045-1 fixed vulnerabilities in FUSE. This update to util-linux adds support for new options required by the FUSE update.
It was discovered that FUSE could be tricked into incorrectly updating the mtab file when mounting filesystems. A local attacker, with access to use FUSE, could unmount arbitrary locations, leading to a denial of service.
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
