Command Injection in umount

All versions of umount are vulnerable to Command Injection. The package fails to sanitize input rules and passes it directly to an exec call on the umount function . This may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in the system if the device value passed to the function is user-controlled.

Recommendation

No fix is currently available. Consider using an alternative package until a fix is made available.
