Advisory ID:       SLSA-2013:1273-1
Issue Date:        2013-09-19
CVE Numbers:       CVE-2013-4324
--

spice-gtk communicated with PolicyKit for authorization via an API that is
vulnerable to a race condition. This could lead to intended PolicyKit
authorizations being bypassed. This update modifies spice-gtk to
communicate with PolicyKit via a different API that is not vulnerable to
the race condition. (CVE-2013-4324)
