Package        : acpi-support
CVE ID         : CVE-2014-1419

CESG discovered a root escalation flaw in the acpi-support package. An 
unprivileged user can inject the DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment 
variable to run arbitrary commands as root user via the policy-funcs 
script.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.140-5+deb7u1.

For the testing distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.142-2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.142-2.

We recommend that you upgrade your acpi-support packages.
