The fix for CVE-2013-4311 had a pre-requisite enhancement
to the identity code
commit db7a5688c05f3fd60d9d2b74c72427eb9ee9c176
Author: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange(a)redhat.com>

Also store user & group ID values in virIdentity
This had a typo which caused the group ID to overwrite the
user ID string. This meant any checks using this would have
the wrong ID value. This only affected the ACL code, not the
initial polkit auth. It also leaked memory.
