It was discovered that packagekit was subject to a vulnerability where the InstallFiles, GetFilesLocal and GetDetailsLocal methods of the DBus interface to PackageKit accesses given files before checking for authorization. This allows non-privileged users to learn the MIME type of any file on the system. (CVE-2020-16121)
