Public bug reported:

[ Impact ]

 * ksmserver: Unauthorized users can access session manager

 * CVE-2024-36041 security

[ Test Plan ]

 * KSmserver, KDE's XSMP manager, incorrectly allows connections via ICE
based purely on the host, allowing all local connections. This allows
another user on the same machine to gain access to the session
manager.

A well crafted client could use the session restore feature to execute
arbitrary code as the user on the next boot.

 * New release to fix CVE

** Affects: plasma-workspace (Ubuntu)
