CVE-2018-7738

Status Candidate

Overview

In util-linux before 2.32-rc1, bash-completion/umount allows local users to gain privileges by embedding shell commands in a mountpoint name, which is mishandled during a umount command (within Bash) by a different user, as demonstrated by logging in as root and entering umount followed by a tab character for autocompletion.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4512-1 - It was discovered that the umount bash completion script shipped in util-linux incorrectly handled certain mountpoints.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 4134-1 - Bjorn Bosselmann discovered that the umount bash completion from util-linux does not properly handle embedded shell commands in a mountpoint name. An attacker with rights to mount filesystems can take advantage of this flaw for privilege escalation if a user (in particular root) is tricked into using the umount completion while a specially crafted mount is present.
