Package: wicd
Severity: critical
Tags: security
Justification: root security hole

It was discovered, wicd in any version supported by Debian (i.e. stable,
testing and unstable) yields to local privilege escalation by injecting
arbitrary code through the DBus interface due to incomplete input
sanitation.

I've briefly verified offending code against the Squeeze and Sid version
of the package but I didn't try to reproduce the steps to exploit wicd.
As far as I know there is no upstream fix available.
