yum-updatesd is vulnerable to authorization bypass attacks. The vulnerability exists as the installUpdates function in yum-cron/yum-cron.py in yum 3.4.3 and earlier does not properly check the return value of the sigCheckPkg function, which allows remote attackers to bypass the RMP package signing restriction via an unsigned package.
