+ <description>
+ <p>It was discovered that a flaw in Firejail’s OverlayFS code allowed
+ restricted programs to escape sandbox.

+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>A local attacker could obtain arbitrary file system access via an
+ application running within a Firejail sandbox, possibly resulting in

+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All Firejail users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
