polkit version 0.113 (or later) is vulnerable, checked current clear repos; polkit-0.112-26.el7.x86_64.rpm

We good for now I suppose. Those that install a DE in the future *may* need to use caution.

Thanks for the report. Note that from your link, EL7 is not vulnerable and also ClearOS does not use gnome unless you have installed it. I am not sure how to go through their reproducing steps without it. Have you tried and succeeded?

Not yet personally tested, will do though after a reinstall tonight. Finally upgrading CF from stock 8GB to a 32GB module.

Interesting read! Don't think we're at risk as I'm pretty locked down from the outside, and inside, it's just the family.

Love the Goldeneye reference though!
