security flaw

umount in util-linux 2.8 to 2.12q, 2.13-pre1, and 2.13-pre2, and other packages such as loop-aes-utils, allows local users with unmount permissions to gain privileges via the -r remount option, which causes the file system to be remounted with just the read-only flag, which effectively clears the...

CVE-1999-1080

In SunOS 5.7, rmmount may mount file systems without the nosuid flag, allowing local users with physical access to gain root privileges by mounting media containing a setuid program and running volcheck when nosuid is not specified in rmmount.conf. This vulnerability stems from mounting behavior ...
