security/vuxml: notify polkit local-privilege-escalation
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
It was unclear if the actual explot would work on FreeBSD,

The following changes are / have been applied:
- fix in polkit from upstream (from Greg V)
- at kernel level, fixes to disallow argc==0 (from kevans, I think)
