CVE-2026-53613
util-linux mount target TOCTOU allows local privilege escalation
util-linux is a random collection of Linux utilities. In util-linux 2.17 through 2.41.6 and 2.42 through 2.42.3, and in 2.42.4 when the legacy mount(2) path is used without /proc, restricted non-root mount requests validate an /etc/fstab target before the mount operation re-resolves that pathname. A local low-privileged user authorized by an fstab user or users entry whose target has an attacker-writable ancestor can use renameat2(RENAME_EXCHANGE) to swap a path component and redirect an authorized mount to a root-owned location, such as mounting attacker-controlled content over /etc/sudoers.d, and thereby gain root privileges. Versions 2.41.5 and 2.42.2 pin targets for the new mount API, and 2.42.4 pins legacy targets through /proc/self/fd; the documented legacy fallback without /proc remains affected.

util-linux security update
The util-linux package contains a random collection of files that implements some low-level basic linux utilities.
Security Fix(es):
When an /etc/fstab entry is configured with the user or users option, mount(8) validates the target path before performing the mount syscall, creating a Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) window. A local unprivileged user with write access to an ancestor directory of the mount target can swap that directory to redirect the mount to an arbitrary root-owned location, potentially escalating privileges to root.(CVE-2026-53613)
A flaw was found in util-linux. Restricted bind mounts take the source path from fstab but do not pin that source before the privileged mount. A local unprivileged user who can replace the authorized source or a writable ancestor can redirect SUID mount(8) to bind another host directory. If the fstab entry also sets X-mount.owner, X-mount.group, or X-mount.mode, root then changes ownership or mode on that redirected inode.(CVE-2026-78410)

Security Fix(es):
CVE-2026-53612 has no publicly disclosed vulnerability details yet. It is only indexed by the Snyk data source. Details are pending disclosure.(CVE-2026-53612)
When an /etc/fstab entry is configured with the user or users option, mount(8) validates the target path before performing the mount syscall, creating a Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) window.

A flaw was found in util-linux. The mount(8) SUID binary does not sanitize the LIBMOUNT_FORCE_MOUNT2 environment variable before use. A local unprivileged user can set this variable to force mount(8) to use the legacy two-step mount(2) code path, which applies security restrictions such as nosuid and noexec after the mount is already active. During this window, an attacker can execute a SUID binary from the mounted filesystem, allowing local privilege escalation to root.

util-linux vulnerabilities
It was discovered that libblkid in util-linux had a heap use-after-free vulnerability during nested partition probing. An attacker who could present a crafted block device image could possibly use this issue to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service. (CVE-2026-13595)
It was discovered that the mount utility in util-linux had a time-of-check- time-of-use vulnerability when setting up loop devices. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain unauthorized read access to root- protected files and block devices. (CVE-2026-27456)
It was discovered that the login utility in util-linux improperly canonicalized hostnames when invoked with the -h option. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass host-based access control rules. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-3184)
It was discovered that libmount in util-linux had a time-of-check-time-of- use vulnerability in its ownership hook. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to gain elevated privileges. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-53612)
It was discovered that libmount in util-linux had a time-of-check-time-of- use vulnerability that allowed target path redirection during mount operations. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2026-53613)
It was discovered that libmount in util-linux improperly handled the LIBMOUNT_FORCE_MOUNT2 environment variable in the SUID mount utility. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass nosuid and noexec mount options and gain elevated privileges. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-53614)
It was discovered that libblkid in util-linux had an integer overflow vulnerability when parsing DOS partition tables. An attacker who could present a crafted block device image could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2026-53615)
