NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bubblewrap package and not the bubblewrap package as distributed by Ubuntu.

When executing a program via the bubblewrap sandbox, the nonpriv session can escape to the parent session by using the TIOCSTI ioctl to push characters into the terminal's input buffer, allowing an attacker to escape the sandbox.
