gollark: ```"You mean that a program designed to let an unprivileged usermount/unmount/eject anything he wants has a security flaw because it allowshim to mount/unmount/eject anything he wants? I'm shocked."Unfortunately, sarcasm does not make you right. Yes, this is a critical security flaw, because anyone with calibre installed on their system now allows any user to gain root privileges by mounting on top of important directories. Just because your application allows this by design rather than by mistake doesn't make this less of a problem.```
gollark: Er, has.
gollark: Didn't it make its own SUID disk mounting thing which had several major bugs?
gollark: Yes, that.
gollark: * inferior
