The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201701-19 (NTFS-3G: Privilege escalation)
NTFS-3G is affected by the same vulnerability as reported in “GLSA 201603-04” when the bundled fuse-lite implementation is used.
Impact :
A local user could gain root privileges.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time. However, on Gentoo when the “external-fuse” USE flag is set or the “suid” USE flag is not set then NTFS-3G is not affected. Both of these cases are the default configuration.
