Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-09-29 07:02:20 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

NFS: Fix the setting of capabilities when automounting a new filesystem

Capabilities cannot be inherited when we cross into a new filesystem.
They need to be reset to the minimal defaults, and then probed for
again.
