    CVE-2021-44225

    Summary: Updated keepalived packages fix security vulnerability

    Details: In Keepalived through 2.2.4, the D-Bus policy does not sufficiently restrict the message destination, allowing any user to inspect and manipulate any property. This leads to access-control bypass in some situations in which an unrelated D-Bus system service has a settable (writable) property (CVE-2021-44225).
