UBUNTU-CVE-2026-78410

A flaw was found in util-linux. Restricted bind mounts take the source path from fstab but do not pin that source before the privileged mount. A local unprivileged user who can replace the authorized source or a writable ancestor can redirect SUID mount8 to bind another host directory. If the fst...

CVE-2026-78409 Util-linux: util-linux: x-mount.subdir detached-tree resolution can escape via intermediate symlinks

The X-mount.subdir option uses a detached-tree fast path on Linux 6.15 and later and passes the configured subdirectory to opentree with ATSYMLINKNOFOLLOW. That flag does not stop intermediate symlink traversal or keep resolution inside the newly mounted filesystem. A local unprivileged user with...

CVE-2026-78409

A flaw in util-linux 's X-mount.subdir mount option allows a local unprivileged user to escape the intended subdirectory and attach an arbitrary host path at the intended mountpoint. On Linux 6.15 and later , the option takes a detached-tree fast path that calls open_tree() with AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLL...

CVE-2026-78410

util-linux is affected by a flaw in how restricted bind mounts are handled. The source path taken from /etc/fstab is not pinned before the privileged mount(8) call, allowing a local unprivileged user who can replace the authorized source or a writable ancestor to redirect the SUID mount to bind a...
