## Overview

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

NFS: Automounted filesystems should inherit ro,noexec,nodev,sync flags

When a filesystem is being automounted, it needs to preserve the
user-set superblock mount options, such as the "ro" flag.

## Remediation

Refer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.
