Description

xdg-desktop-portal regression USN-8287-1 fixed a vulnerability in XDG Desktop Portal. Unfortunately the fix for CVE-2026-40354 was incomplete and introduced a regression when trashing files.

A local attacker could possibly use this issue to delete arbitrary files on the host file system via a symlink attack.
