CVE-2011-3145
Last modified
CVE-2011-3145 is a low-severity vulnerability rated 3.8/10 on the CVSS scale. When mount.ecrpytfs_private before version 87-0ubuntu1.2 calls setreuid() it doesn't also set the effective group id. So when it creates the new version, mtab.tmp, it's created with the group id of the user running mount.ecryptfs_private.. EPSS estimates a 0.98% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
