CVE-2004-2610: Stefan Bambach Mntd

Medium severity, CVSS 4.6. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

mntd_mount.c in mntd before 0.4.2 might allow local users to gain privileges via shell metacharacters in a remount option in the configuration file. NOTE: It is not clear whether this is a vulnerability because there is not necessarily any common usage in which privilege boundaries are crossed. Typical usage would restrict write access to the configuration file.
