  • patches/packages/blueman-2.0.6-i586-1_slack14.2.txz
    This update fixes an issue where blueman-mechanism did not enforce the
    polkit action 'org.blueman.network.setup' for which a polkit policy is
    shipped. This meant that any user with access to the D-Bus system bus was
    able to access the related API without authentication. The result was an
    unspecified impact on the networking stack.
    Thanks to Matthias Gerstner for discovering this issue.
    (* Security fix *)
