Tom tried those things in a VM last night and could reproduce it. On a suggestion by Robbie Basak but the downgrade didn't solve it, which made me suggest something in the configuration is being permanently changed.
I'm not going to downgrade the package because I am debugging it and don't want to disturb the system. As Tom reproduced in a VM and on 16.04.5 I wonder if this is a timing issue that the _racy_ detection is truly detecting. The common thread is Tom and myself are both using Xubuntu/XFCE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1784964 Title: Regression due to CVE-2018-1116 (processes not inheriting user ID or groups ) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit-1/+bug/1784964/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
