I have updated the patch based on a security review of the code for bug #283477 by Jamie Strandboge.
The attached patch includes fixes for bug #272232, as well as bug #283477. I have uploaded a package for testing in my PPA. I'm satisfied with my testing of both patches. I will be committing both of these patches to the ecryptfs upstream project. I'm requesting sponsorship for Intrepid now. Steve?
