Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-08-28 16:04:19 UTC

A flaw was found in NetworkManager. NetworkManager package allows access files that may belong to other users. NetworkManager allows non-root users to configure the network on the system. The daemon runs as root and, as such, is able to access files that are owned by users different from the one who added the connection.
