+  <title>util-linux: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code</title>
+  <synopsis>A vulnerability was discovered in util-linux, which could
+    potentially lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

+    <package name="sys-apps/util-linux" auto="yes" arch="*">
+      <unaffected range="ge">2.30.2-r1</unaffected>

+  <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>It was discovered that the umount bash-completion as provided by
+      util-linux does not escap mount point paths.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>An attacker controlling a volume label could entice a user with
+      privileges to mount/umount filesystems to use umount command with auto
+      completion, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with root
+      privileges.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>Disable Bash-completion or remove
+      “/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/umount”.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>All util-linux users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
