Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:208-1
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : pam_mount
Date : October 18, 2008
Affected: 2008.1
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
pam_mount 0.10 through 0.45, when luserconf is enabled, does not verify
mountpoint and source ownership before mounting a user-defined volume,
which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via
a local mount.
The updated packages have been patched to fix the issue.
Update:
The fix for CVE-2008-3970 uncovered crashes in the code handling the
'allow', 'deny', and 'require' options in pam_mount-0.33, released
for Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring. Also, the verification of the allowed
mount options ('allow' configuration directive) was inverted in
pam_mount-0.33.
This update fixes these issues.
