Description

CVE-2023-49582 affecting package apr for versions less than 1.7.5-1

Lax permissions set by the Apache Portable Runtime library on Unix platforms would allow local users read access to named shared memory segments, potentially revealing sensitive application data.

Users are recommended to upgrade to APR version 1.7.5, which fixes this issue.
