privilege escalation flaw due to incomplete input sanitization. A
local attacker sould use this to inject arbitrary code through the
D-Bus interface.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
