+  <title>util-linux: Local privilege escalation</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    The mount and umount programs might allow local attackers to gain root
+    privileges.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    util-linux is a suite of Linux programs including mount and umount,
+    programs used to mount and unmount filesystems.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Ludwig Nussel discovered that the check_special_mountprog() and
+    check_special_umountprog() functions call setuid() and setgid() in the
+    wrong order and do not check the return values, which can lead to
+    privileges being dropped improperly.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker may be able to exploit this vulnerability by using
+    mount helpers such as the mount.nfs program to gain root privileges and
+    run arbitrary commands.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All util-linux users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=sys-apps/util-linux-2.12r-r8"</code>
