IMO suexec would be better suited to handle more sensitive operations

CGI is not an interactive shell, as you discovered.
Calling a separate script with the suid bit might work too.
But I don't need an interactive shell: I need a way to run a script as

Let's take a step back - why are you unmounting from a cgi script?
It's a one-time setup when a user configures a new system. Most of these
users aren't shell-literate, so they configure by ticking boxes on a web
page. The system is a VPS, so is actually a VM, which I hope isn't relevant.

anywhere?
Specifically, I have a problem where a bash script runs as expected when
run from an interactive shell by user www-data (this is Ubuntu).
However, the
