Description
Pardus Parental Control before 0.7.0 contains an incorrect authorization vulnerability in the polkit policy that allows unprivileged local users to disable parental controls as root. Attackers can invoke PPCActivator.py with the --disable argument via pkexec to remove all restrictions including DNS filtering and application limits without authentication.
A vulnerability exists in Pardus Parental Control versions prior to 0.7.0, where the polkit policy incorrectly authorizes actions.

By using the PPCActivator.py script with the --disable argument through pkexec, users can bypass restrictions such as DNS filtering and application limits, all without authentication.
Users can update to Pardus Parental Control version 0.7.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been addressed.
