Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security
impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each
vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

The polkit packages provide a component for controlling system-wide
privileges. This component provides a uniform and organized way for
non-privileged processes to communicate with privileged ones.

Security Fix(es) :

* polkit: Improper handling of user with uid > INT_MAX leading to
authentication bypass (CVE-2018-19788)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a
CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to
the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
