Public exploit

Exploit reference published

Source-linked evidence; not proof of attacks in the wild or independent validation.

Remediation

Source guidance available

Review the recorded instructions. Guidance may be a workaround rather than a fixed version.

What this means

A flaw in util-linux allows a local unprivileged user to redirect SUID mount(8) to bind another host directory if they can replace the authorized source or a writable ancestor. The vulnerability affects restricted bind mounts that do not pin the source path from fstab. If the fstab entry sets X-mount.owner, X-mount.group, or X-mount.mode, root may change ownership or mode on the redirected inode.

Summarized by @cf/meta/llama-3.3-70b-instruct-fp8-fast. Verify details against the original sources.

Automatic dependency matching is unavailable for this record. Use the product evidence and publisher’s instructions to check your installation.

What to do

Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.

Upgrade to util-linux v2.41.6, v2.42.3, or later. Until a fix is applied, do not allow unprivileged /etc/fstab bind or rbind entries that also specify X-mount.owner, X-mount.group, or X-mount.mode, especially when the bind source is below a user-writable ancestor.

Original source description

Read the full publisher description

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 mount(8) to bind another host directory. If the fstab entry also sets X-mount.owner, X-mount.group, or X-mount.mode, root then changes ownership or mode on that redirected inode.
