* SECURITY UPDATE: insecure mount permissions (LP: #1390183)
- The mount utility now honours process umask when mounting certain
filesystems, resulting in them being potentially mounted with
inappropriate permissions.
- src/mountall.c: don't specifically set umask when running as a
daemon, inherit the umask Upstart sets instead.
- CVE-2014-1421
