Upstream has decided not to fix this vulnerability [1]. Apparently they're using a Linux kernel patch that makes TIOCSTI require CAP_SYS_ADMIN [2], making this vulnerability impossible to exploit, but the Debian kernel sources don't seem to contain such a capability check, so polkit on Debian is still vulnerable.
