"From Red Hat Security Advisory 2011:0455 :

Updated polkit packages that fix one security issue are now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System
(CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is
available from the CVE link in the References section.

PolicyKit is a toolkit for defining and handling authorizations.

A race condition flaw was found in the PolicyKit pkexec utility and
polkitd daemon. A local user could use this flaw to appear as a
privileged user to pkexec, allowing them to execute arbitrary commands
as root by running those commands with pkexec. (CVE-2011-1485)

Red Hat would like to thank Neel Mehta of Google for reporting this
issue.

All polkit users should upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches to correct this issue. The system must be
rebooted for this update to take effect."
