Description Nick Tait 2023-10-10 17:11:26 UTC

A weakness in the tracker-miners sandbox allows a maliciously-crafted 
file to gain code execution outside the sandbox if the tracker-extract 
process has first been compromised by a separate vulnerability, as 
demonstrated by [1]. This affects all versions of tracker-miners prior 
to 3.3.2, 3.4.5, 3.5.3, and 3.6.1, and additionally affects tracker 
1.12.

This affects all versions of RHEL 8 and RHEL 9. It doesn't affect RHEL 
7 because there is no sandbox in RHEL 7 (which ships tracker 1.10).
