   An update that solves one vulnerability and has four fixes
   is now available.

Description:


   ecryptfs-utils was updated to fix a security issue and some
   bugs.

   Security issue fixed: mount.ecryptfs_private did not set
   correct group  ownerships when it modifies mtab
   (CVE-2011-3145).

   Also some bugs that made this set of tools non-working were
   fixed.

   You need to manually hand setuid root permissions to
   /sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private if you want to use it as a
   non-root user.
