Synopsis
cifs-utils bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated cifs-utils package that fixes two bugs is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The cifs-utils package contains utilities for mounting and managing CIFS shares.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Prior to this update, mount.cifs dropped the CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH flag together
with most of the other capability flags before it performed a mount. As a
result, mounting onto a directory without execute permissions failed if
mount.cifs was installed as a setuid program and the user mount was configured
in the /etc/fstab file. This update reinstates the CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH flag
before calling mount. Now, mounting no longer fails. (BZ#676439)
- Prior to this update, several mount options were missing from the
mount.cifs(8) man page. With this update, the man page documents all mount
options. (BZ#719363)
All users of cifs-utils are advised to upgrade to this updated cifs-utils
package, which fixes these bugs.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
