Synopsis
========

A vulnerability has been found in D-Bus which allows local attackers to
gain escalated privileges.

Background
==========

D-Bus is a daemon providing a framework for applications to communicate
with one another. GLib is a library providing a number of GNOME’s core
objects and functions.

Affected packages
=================

——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 sys-apps/dbus < 1.6.8 >= 1.6.8
2 dev-libs/glib < 2.32.4-r1 >= 2.32.4-r1
——————————————————————-
2 affected packages

Description
===========

When libdbus is used in a setuid program, a user can gain escalated
privileges by leveraging the DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS variable. GLib can
be used in a setuid context with D-Bus, and so can trigger this
vulnerability. Please review the CVE identifier below for more details.

Impact
======

A local attacker could gain escalated privileges and execute arbitrary
code.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All D-Bus users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot –verbose “>=sys-apps/dbus-1.6.8”

All GLib users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot –verbose “>=dev-libs/glib-2.32.4-r1”
