Synopsis
========

A vulnerability was discovered in util-linux, which could potentially
lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

Background
==========

util-linux is a suite of Linux programs including mount and umount,
programs used to mount and unmount filesystems.

Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package              /     Vulnerable     /            Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  sys-apps/util-linux        < 2.30.2-r1              >= 2.30.2-r1

Description
===========

It was discovered that the umount bash-completion as provided by
util-linux does not escap mount point paths.

Impact
======

An attacker controlling a volume label could entice a user with
privileges to mount/umount filesystems to use umount command with auto
completion, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with root
privileges.

Workaround
==========

Disable Bash-completion or remove
"/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/umount".

Resolution
==========

All util-linux users should upgrade to the latest version:

  # emerge --sync
  # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
 ">=sys-apps/util-linux-2.30.2-r1"

References
==========
