Description OSIDB Bzimport 2024-11-08 13:07:06 UTC 
The `instance_name` parameter of the `instance_create()` method is not sanitized. This string is later on used in logging and in the output of utilities like `tuned-adm get_instances`, or other third party programs that utilize tuned's D-Bus interface to obtain instance names.

By adding control characters to the instance name, log spoofing can be achieved. By placing newline characters into the name, seemingly independent and legit log lines can be added to the tuned log. By adding terminal control sequences the terminal emulators of administrators or
other users can be influenced
