How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:6 libblkid.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libblkid package and not the libblkid package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

FUSE, possibly 2.8.5 and earlier, allows local users to create mtab entries with arbitrary pathnames, and consequently unmount any filesystem, via a symlink attack on the parent directory of the mountpoint of a FUSE filesystem, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0789.
