In dbus-proxy/flatpak-proxy.c in Flatpak before 0.8.9, and 0.9.x and 0.10.x before 0.10.3, crafted D-Bus messages to the host can be used to break out of the sandbox, because whitespace handling in the proxy is not identical to whitespace handling in the daemon.

Weakness

Product A handles inputs or steps differently than Product B, which causes A to perform incorrect actions based on its perception of B’s state.
