NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream fuse package and not the fuse package as distributed by Ubuntu.

An unspecified udev rule in the Debian fuse package in jessie before 2.9.3-15+deb8u2, in stretch before 2.9.5-1, and in sid before 2.9.5-1 sets world-writable permissions for the /dev/cuse character device, which allows local users to gain privileges via a character device in /dev, related to an ioctl.
