This is already well known [1]. >From [1]: "These bits are useful, but be aware that some of these are intended to simplify ease-of-use and aren't really sufficient to prevent certain actions. For example, on Linux, mounting with ``noexec'' will disable execution of programs on that file system; as noted in the manual, it's intended for mounting filesystems containing binaries for incompatible systems. On Linux, this option won't completely prevent someone from running the files; they can copy the files somewhere else to run them, or even use the command ``/lib/ld-linux.so.2'' to run the file directly."
