Package        : dbus
CVE ID         : CVE-2019-12749
Debian Bug     : 930375

Joe Vennix discovered an authentication bypass vulnerability in dbus, an
asynchronous inter-process communication system. The implementation of
the DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 authentication mechanism was susceptible to a
symbolic link attack. A local attacker could take advantage of this flaw
to bypass authentication and connect to a DBusServer with elevated
privileges.

The standard system and session dbus-daemons in their default
configuration are not affected by this vulnerability.

The vulnerability was addressed by upgrading dbus to a new upstream
version 1.10.28 which includes additional fixes.

For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.10.28-0+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your dbus packages.

tracker page at:
