CVE-2018-12560
Arbitrary unmounts can be performed by regular users via directory traversal sequences such as a home/../sys/kernel substring.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.78%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
An issue was discovered in the cantata-mounter D-Bus service in Cantata through 2.3.1. Arbitrary unmounts can be performed by regular users via directory traversal sequences such as a home/../sys/kernel substring.
