Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2019.0339
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2019-0339)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'dbus' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2019-0339 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'dbus' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2019-0339 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
dbus before 1.10.28, 1.12.x before 1.12.16, and 1.13.x before 1.13.12, as
used in DBusServer in Canonical Upstart in Ubuntu 14.04 (and in some, less
common, uses of dbus-daemon), allows cookie spoofing because of symlink
mishandling in the reference implementation of DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 in the
libdbus library. (This only affects the DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 authentication
mechanism.) A malicious client with write access to its own home directory
could manipulate a ~
/.dbus-keyrings symlink to cause a DBusServer with a
different uid to read and write in unintended locations. In the worst case,
this could result in the DBusServer reusing a cookie that is known to the
malicious client, and treating that cookie as evidence that a subsequent
client connection came from an attacker-chosen uid, allowing authentication
bypass (CVE-2019-12749).

Affected Software/OS:
'dbus' package(s) on Mageia 7.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
