   An update that solves two vulnerabilities and has one
   errata is now available.

Description:

   This update for flatpak fixes the following issues:

   - CVE-2021-21381: Fixed an issue where a sandboxed application could read
     and write arbitrary host files via special tokens in the .desktop file
     (bsc#1183459).
   - CVE-2021-21261: Fixed a sandbox escape issue via the flatpak-portal
     service (bsc#1180996).

   Non-security fixes:

   - openh264 extension needs to use "extra_data". (bsc#1155688) The update
     will provide the support for extra_data" in extensions and will provide
     a list of versions that are supported. This will be useful for the
     extra_data for extensions because that will require it to say that it is
     supported for version > 1.2.5 in the 1.2 series and > 1.4.2 otherwise.
     The update  will includes fixes for a segfault in the function that
     lists the installed references
     (flatpak_installation_list_installed_refs). When an appstream update is
     cancelled while downloading icons, the update will show a proper fail.
     Before this fix the next update attempt will see an up-to-date
     timestamp, think everyhing is ok and not download the missing icons. The
     update will introduce checks in the OCI (Open Container Initiative
     format) updates for validating if it is gpg verified. The update will
     install the required runtime for the installed extension. The update
     will prevent a crash if the "FlatpakDir" can't ensure it has a repo
     configured. The update will prevent the removal of local extensions
     considered remote and not locally related.
