Commit Message

Details: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-3982

The vulnerability is about a privilege escalation, in case
the host distribution sets CAP_SYS_NICE capability on the
gnome-shell binary.

OE distros don't do that, and due to this this recipe is not
affected by this issue. The CVE is ignored.
