Description Josh Bressers 2005-09-13 15:24:25 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #168206 +++

This issue was reported to bugtraq here:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=112656096125857&w=2

The issue is that if a non root user is able to run umount -r, it is possible to
subvert the restrictions placed on a filesystem such as nosuid.
