Summary

Updated gvfs package fixes security vulnerabilities:
* daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c mishandles file ownership because setfsuid is not used (CVE-2019-12447). * daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c has race conditions because the admin backend doesn't implement query_info_on_read/write (CVE-2019-12448). * daemon/gvfsbackendadmin.c mishandles a file's user and group ownership during move (and copy with G_FILE_COPY_ALL_METADATA) operations from admin:// to file:// URIs, because root privileges are unavailable (CVE-2019-12449). * daemon/gvfsdaemon.c in gvfsd from GNOME gvfs before 1.38.3, 1.40.x before 1.40.2, and 1.41.x before 1.41.3 opened a private D-Bus server socket without configuring an authorization rule (CVE-2019-12795)
