PackageKit between and including versions 1.0.2 and 1.3.4 is vulnerable to a time-of-check time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition on… | ||
| CVE-2018-1106 | Med | 0.36 | 5.5 | 0.00 | Apr 23, 2018 | An authentication bypass flaw has been found in PackageKit before 1.1.10 that allows users without administrator privileges to install signed packages. A local attacker can use this vulnerability to install vulnerable packages to further compromise a system. | ||
| CVE-2026-10294 | Med | 0.28 | 4.3 | 0.00 | Jun 1, 2026 | A vulnerability has been found in PackageKit up to 1.3.5.
