NVD Description

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

In cifs-utils through 6.14, a stack-based buffer overflow when parsing the mount.cifs ip= command-line argument could lead to local attackers gaining root privileges.
