Public bug reported:

This applies to disco only.
Ref: symlink exploit fixed in 10.4 release

Systemd restart is masked.
Debian lists this update as high priority.
Any easy get-root bug should be critical, 
not medium priority as listed in the usn. 
Updating while running the livecd  is not securing anything.
Please prioritize release of proposed security updates to disco,
and all future current livecd versions.
At least push out those updates that require substantial knowledge to activate
(libc6, dbus, systemd, and their dependencies, etc )
and packages needed to do updates (apt, networkmanager, their dependencies, etc)


Is there a way to override the mask and restart systemd?
Can I use apparmor to prevent the symlink exploit? How?


Should I file this elsewhere?
