CVE-2018-12560

An issue was discovered in the cantata-mounter D-Bus service in Cantata through 2.3.1. Arbitrary unmounts can be performed by regular users via directory traversal sequences such as a home/../sys/kernel substring.

The mount target path check in mounter.cpp 'mpOk()' is insufficient. A regular user can this way mount a CIFS filesystem anywhere, and not just beneath /home by passing relative path components (CVE-2018-12559).

Arbitrary unmounts can be performed by regular users the same way (CVE-2018-12560).

A regular user can inject additional mount options like file_mode= by manipulating e.g. the domain parameter of the samba URL (CVE-2018-12561).

The wrapper script 'mount.cifs.wrapper' uses the shell to forward the arguments to the actual mount.cifs binary. The shell evaluates wildcards which can also be injected (CVE-2018-12562).

To fix these issues, the vulnerable D-Bus service has been removed.
