I released new version of Mock. It is security release. All users of mock-scm are encouraged to upgrade.
If you use just mock (not the scm subpackage) then you are not affected.

From:
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/mock/wiki/Release-Notes-1.2.21


Mock version 1.2.21 is security release. It fixes:

CVE-2016-6299 - privilige escalation via mock-scm RHBZ#1375493

Additionally it has those changes:

root_cache: Mention root cache being created in state updates (log messages)
Rename mageia pubkey to RPM-GPG-KEY-Mageia
require generic system-release rather than fedora-release RHBZ#1367746
