polkit 0.112

NOTE: This release is an important security update, see below.

WARNING WARNING WARNING: This is a prerelease on the road to polkit
1.0. Public API might change and certain parts of the code still needs
some security review. Use at your own risk.

This is polkit 0.112.

Highlights:
 This release fixes CVE-2013-4288: Race condition with process subjects that do
 not have securely determined uid.

 pkcheck(1) now supports a new format for the --process argument; all
 applications need to use the new format to avoid a race condition (or use
 --system-bus-name to identify the process instead).

 Similarly, applications using the API should always use
 polkit_unix_process_new_for_owner().  polkit_unix_process_new() and
 polkit_unix_process_new_full() are unsafe and have been deprecated.

 Thanks to Sebastian Krahmer of the SUSE Security Team for reporting this issue.

Build requirements

 glib, gobject, gio    >= 2.30
 mozjs185 or mozjs-17.0
 gobject-introspection >= 0.6.2 (optional)
 pam (optional)

Changes since polkit 0.111:

Colin Walters (2):
