Comment:
This fixes CIFSSwitch (CVE-2026-46243), another local privilege escalation
issue.
https://github.com/manizada/CIFSwitch has a working exploit
and a writeup can be found at https://heyitsas.im/posts/cifswitch/
Marked as High per upstream CVE rating.
Note that users must have cifs-utils installed to be exploitable, but we
do carry that package in BLFS.
