CVE-2013-4362 [HIGH] CVE-2013-4362 davfs2: insecure use of system()
CVE-2013-4362 davfs2: insecure use of system()
It is found that davfs2, a tool for connecting to WebDAV, might be using the system() insecurely. The issue is since mount_davfs2 is setuid, using the system() call could result in privilege escalation.
