Have you sent your patch to the security contact at
https://www.bluez.org/development/security-bugs/ yet?

I wouldn't consider myself a security expert, but I don't think this
is a security bug and that the importance you have set is too high.

It is fairly rare in Debian to use ConditionUser=!root
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=ConditionUser.*root&literal=0

That doesn't mean that we shouldn't make your requested change, but if
this is a security vulnerability, then there could be thousands of
similar vulnerabilities!

We are effectively in Hard Freeze for Trixie so at this point I am
leaning towards not requesting an unblock from the Debian Release Team
to try to get this change into Trixie.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
