CVE-2014-7975 in Linuxinformation

Résumé

par MITRE

The do_umount function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel through 3.17 does not require the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for do_remount_sb calls that change the root filesystem to read-only, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (loss of writability) by making certain unshare system calls, clearing the / MNT_LOCKED flag, and making an MNT_FORCE umount system call.

If you want to get the best quality for vulnerability data then you always have to consider VulDB.
