polkit 0.113
--------------

NOTE: This release is an important security update, see below.

**WARNING:**
This is a prerelease on the road to polkit
1.0. Public API might change and certain parts of the code still needs
some security review. Use at your own risk.

This is polkit **0.113**.

### Highlights:
 Fixes CVE-2015-4625, a local privilege escalation due to predictable
 authentication session cookie values. Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Project
 Zero for reporting this issue. For the future, authentication agents are
 encouraged to use PolkitAgentSession instead of using the D-Bus agent response
 API directly.

 Fixes CVE-2015-3256, various memory corruption vulnerabilities in use of the
 JavaScript interpreter, possibly leading to local privilege escalation.

 Fixes CVE-2015-3255, a memory corruption vulnerability in handling duplicate
 action IDs, possibly leading to local privilege escalation. Thanks to
 Laurent Bigonville for reporting this issue.

 Fixes CVE-2015-3218, which allowed any local user to crash polkitd. Thanks to
 Tavis Ormandy, Google Project Zero, for reporting this issue.

 On systemd-213 and later, the “active” state is shared across all sessions of
 an user, instead of being tracked separately.

 (pkexec), when not given a program to execute, runs the users’ shell by
 default.

### Build requirements:

 - glib, gobject, gio    >= 2.30
 - mozjs185 or mozjs-17.0
 - gobject-introspection >= 0.6.2 (optional)
 - pam (optional)
 - ConsoleKit OR systemd

### Changes since polkit 0.112:

    PolkitSystemBusName: Add public API to retrieve Unix user
    examples/cancel: Fix to securely lookup subject
    sessionmonitor-systemd: Deduplicate code paths
    PolkitSystemBusName: Retrieve both pid and uid
    Port internals non-deprecated PolkitProcess API where possible
    Use G_GNUC_BEGIN_IGNORE_DEPRECATIONS to avoid warning spam
    pkexec: Work around systemd injecting broken XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
    pkexec: Support just plain "pkexec" to run shell
    .dir-locals: Style for Emacs - we don't use tabs
    authority: Avoid cookie wrapping by using u64 counter
    CVE-2015-3218: backend: Handle invalid object paths in RegisterAuthenticationAgent
    build: Start using git.mk

    authority: Add a helper method for checking whether an identity is root
    CVE-2015-4625: Use unpredictable cookie values, keep them secret

polkit 0.112
--------------

NOTE: This release is an important security update, see below.

**WARNING:**
This is a prerelease on the road to polkit
1.0. Public API might change and certain parts of the code still needs
some security review. Use at your own risk.

This is polkit **0.112**.

### Highlights:
 This release fixes CVE-2013-4288: Race condition with process subjects that do
 not have securely determined uid.

 pkcheck(1) now supports a new format for the --process argument; all
 applications need to use the new format to avoid a race condition (or use
 --system-bus-name to identify the process instead).

 Similarly, applications using the API should always use
 polkit_unix_process_new_for_owner().  polkit_unix_process_new() and
 polkit_unix_process_new_full() are unsafe and have been deprecated.

 Thanks to Sebastian Krahmer of the SUSE Security Team for reporting this issue.

### Build requirements:

 - glib, gobject, gio    >= 2.30
 - mozjs185 or mozjs-17.0
 - gobject-introspection >= 0.6.2 (optional)
 - pam (optional)
 - ConsoleKit OR systemd

### Changes since polkit 0.111:

 - Colin Walters (2):
    polkitunixprocess: Deprecate racy APIs
    pkcheck: Support --process=pid,start-time,uid syntax too

 - Miloslav Trmač (1):
    Post-release version bump to 0.112

 - Tomas Bzatek (1):
    Use GOnce for interface type registration

 - Tomas Chvatal (2):
    Add czech translation po file to distribution.
    Update the czech once more with newest pot file.

Thanks to our contributors.
