NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream packagekit package and not the packagekit package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

A use-after-free flaw was found in PackageKitd. In some conditions, the order of cleanup mechanics for a transaction could be impacted. As a result, some memory access could occur on memory regions that were previously freed. Once freed, a memory region can be reused for other allocations and any previously stored data in this memory region is considered lost.
