* Merging upstream version 1.9.21:
- Fix privilege escalation via command socket [CVE-2026-41054] - the uid
check sent a NAK to non-root callers but did not exit the function,
allowing unprivileged local users to send commands to the root-running
daemon via the abstract UNIX socket (Closes: #1137096).
