Description Wolfgang Frisch 2023-07-20 16:03:49 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1212951 +++

nqptp is designed to interoperate with other programs via a POSIX shared
memory object in `/dev/shm/nqptp`. nqptp runs as root and creates this SHM object with world-writable permissions, allowing any unprivileged user to corrupt it.
