Ubuntu Security Notice 6504-1 - It was discovered that tracker-miners incorrectly handled sandboxing. If a second security issue was discovered in tracker-miners, an attacker could possibly use this issue in combination with it to escape the sandbox.
A flaw was found in the tracker-miners package. A weakness in the sandbox allows a maliciously-crafted file to execute code outside the sandbox if the tracker-extract process has first been compromised by a separate vulnerability.
