USN144-1 : dbus vulnerability

Vulnerability Assessment Summary dbus vulnerability Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : These remote packages are missing security patches : - dbus-1 - dbus-1-dev - dbus-1-doc - dbus-1-utils - dbus-glib-1 - dbus-glib-1-dev - python2.3-dbus Description : Besides providing the global system-wide communication bus, dbus also offers per-user "session" buses which applications in an user's session can create and use to communicate with each other. Daniel Reed discovered that the default configuration of the session dbus permited a local user to connect to another user's session bus if its address was known. The fixed packages restrict the default permissions to the user who owns the session dbus instance. Please note that a standard Ubuntu installation does not use the session bus for anything, so this can only be exploited if you are using custom software which uses it. Solution : Upgrade to : - dbus-1-0.22-1ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - dbus-1-dev-0.22-1ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - dbus-1-doc-0.22-1ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - dbus-1-utils-0.22-1ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - dbus-glib-1-0.22-1ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - dbus-glib-1-dev-0.22-1ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.3-dbus-0.22-1ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2005 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2005 Michel Arboi
