  wireless network connection active at all times. The ifcfg-rh
  NetworkManager plug-in is used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux distributions to
  read and write configuration information from the
  /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* files.

  An input sanitization flaw was found in the way the ifcfg-rh NetworkManager
  plug-in escaped network connection names containing special characters. If
  PolicyKit was configured to allow local, unprivileged users to create and
  save new network connections, they could create a connection with a
  specially-crafted name, leading to the escalation of their privileges.
  Note: By default, PolicyKit prevents unprivileged users from creating and
  saving network connections. (CVE-2011-3364)

  Red Hat would like to thank Matt McCutchen for reporting this issue.

  Users of NetworkManager should upgrade to these updated packages, which
  contain a backported patch to correct this issue. Running instances of
  NetworkManager must be restarted ('service NetworkManager restart') for
  this update to take effect.");
