vSphere_selfuse commit 2a9fe074a64f6a0dd8ac02f21e2f10d66cac5749 was discovered to contain a code execution backdoor via the request package. This vulnerability allows attackers to access sensitive user information and digital currency keys, as well as escalate privileges.

cfg_tilde_expand in confuse.c in libConfuse 3.3 has a heap-based buffer over-read.

cfg_init in confuse.c in libConfuse 3.2.2 has a memory leak.

In fuse before versions 2.9.8 and 3.x before 3.2.5, fusermount is vulnerable to a restriction bypass when SELinux is active. This allows non-root users to mount a FUSE file system with the 'allow_other' mount option regardless of whether 'user_allow_other' is set in the fuse configuration. An attacker may use this flaw to mount a FUSE file system, accessible by other users, and trick them into accessing files on that file system, possibly causing Denial of Service or other unspecified effects.

trim_whitespace in lexer.l in libConfuse v3.2.1 has an out-of-bounds read.

fusermount in FUSE before 2.9.3-15 does not properly clear the environment before invoking (1) mount or (2) umount as root, which allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a crafted LIBMOUNT_MTAB environment variable that is used by mount's debugging feature.

FUSE, possibly 2.8.5 and earlier, allows local users to create mtab entries with arbitrary pathnames, and consequently unmount any filesystem, via a symlink attack on the parent directory of the mountpoint of a FUSE filesystem, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0789.
