From 72fd713962ca2c2450e23b01d9e22017a7e28fd4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] polkit: Avoid race condition in scraping /proc
If a calling process execve()s a setuid program, it can appear to be
uid 0. Since we're receiving requests over DBus, avoid this by simply
passing system-bus-name as a subject.
