MetricsAV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions dbus-glib versions 0.73 through 0.86 dbus-glib-devel versions 0.73 through 0.86 dbus-glib-debuginfo versions 0.73 through 0.86
Description The issue is related to the dbus g proxy manager filter function in dbus-gproxy, which does not properly verify the sender of NameOwnerChanged signals. This can allow local users to gain privileges via a spoofed signal, potentially leading to a violation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. The exploitation of this issue can be carried out locally.
Recommendations For dbus-glib versions 0.73 through 0.86, update to version 0.100.1 or later. For dbus-glib-devel versions 0.73 through 0.86, update to version 0.100.1 or later. For dbus-glib-debuginfo versions 0.73 through 0.86, update to version 0.100.1 or later. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the dbus g proxy manager filter function until a patch is available.
