Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update to dbus
announced via advisory MDVSA-2009:256.

Vulnerability Insight:
A vulnerability was discovered and corrected in dbus:

The _dbus_validate_signature_with_reason function
(dbus-marshal-validate.c) in D-Bus (aka DBus) uses incorrect logic
to validate a basic type, which allows remote attackers to spoof a
signature via a crafted key. NOTE: this is due to an incorrect fix
for CVE-2008-3834 (CVE-2009-1189).

This update provides a fix for this vulnerability.

Affected: 2008.1, 2009.0, Enterprise Server 5.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.

CVSS Score:
3.6
