Sergey Nizovtsev discovered that Aptdaemon incorrectly filtered certain arguments when using its D-Bus interface. A local attacker could use this flaw to bypass security restrictions and view sensitive information by reading arbitrary files.
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
