What is CVE-2012-1586?

The cifs-utils package version 2.6 is vulnerable to a local file enumeration issue. Local users can exploit this vulnerability by supplying a file path in the second argument of the mount.cifs command. The response triggers an error message that inadvertently reveals the existence of specified files or directories. This can lead to information disclosure, as attackers may gain insights into the structure and contents of the file system.
