CVE-2011-1834

Status: ModifiedLow (2.1)—

utils/mount.ecryptfs_private.c in ecryptfs-utils before 90 does not properly maintain the mtab file during error conditions, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (table corruption) or bypass intended unmounting restrictions via a umount system call.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
