USN-5427-1: Apport vulnerabilities

Muqing Liu and neoni discovered that Apport incorrectly handled detecting
if an executable was replaced after a crash. A local attacker could
possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code as the root user.
(CVE-2021-3899)

Gerrit Venema discovered that Apport incorrectly handled connections to
Apport sockets inside containers. A local attacker could possibly use this
issue to connect to arbitrary sockets as the root user. (CVE-2022-1242)

files. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Apport to
consume resources, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2022-28652)

being consumed during D-Bus connections. A local attacker could possibly
use this issue to cause Apport to consume memory, leading to a denial of
service. (CVE-2022-28656)

handler before chrooting into a container. A local attacker could possibly
use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-28657)
