Source: cantata
Version: 2.3.0.ds1-1
Severity: important
Tags: security

cantata contains a helper program cantata-mounter
which runs as root (via D-Bus activation) and allows
unprivileged users to do privileged mount operations via D-Bus
IPC. This turns out to have several security vulnerabilities
(<http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2018/06/18/1>) with the
worst-case impact being local root privilege escalation.

Mitigation: the Debian packaging doesn't seem to build cantata-mounter
(or at least https://packages.debian.org/unstable/cantata says it isn't
in the binary package for the architectures I tried). However, d/rules
doesn't *explicitly* disable it, so I think there's a risk that it might
become enabled by mistake in a future upload.

Please close this bug when either cantata-mounter is specifically
disabled, or the upstream source has been upgraded to a version that no
longer includes cantata-mounter.

Thanks,
    smcv
