3. Problem description:
The util-linux package contains a large variety of low-level system
utilities that are necessary for a Linux system to function.
A flaw was discovered in the way that the mount and umount utilities
used the setuid and setgid functions, which could lead to privileges being
dropped improperly. A local user could use this flaw to run mount helper
applications such as, mount.nfs, with additional privileges (CVE-2007-5191).
Users are advised to update to these erratum packages which contain a
backported patch to correct this issue.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
