* SECURITY UPDATE: World writable root owned lock file created in user
  controllable location (LP: #1862348)
  - data/apport: Change location of lock file to be directly under
    /var/run so that regular users can not directly access it or perform
    symlink attacks.
  - CVE-2020-8831
* SECURITY UPDATE: Race condition between report creation and ownership
  (LP: #1862933)
  - data/apport: When setting owner of report file use a file-descriptor
    to the report file instead of its path name to ensure that users can
    not cause Apport to change the ownership of other files via a
    symlink attack.
  - CVE-2020-8833
