Category:	Debian Local Security Checks
Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-3161-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'dbus' package(s) announced via the DSA-3161-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'dbus' package(s) announced via the DSA-3161-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Simon McVittie discovered a local denial of service flaw in dbus, an asynchronous inter-process communication system. On systems with systemd-style service activation, dbus-daemon does not prevent forged ActivationFailure messages from non-root processes. A malicious local user could use this flaw to trick dbus-daemon into thinking that systemd failed to activate a system service, resulting in an error reply back to the requester. For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.8-1+deb7u6. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.8.16-1. We recommend that you upgrade your dbus packages. Affected Software/OS: 'dbus' package(s) on Debian 7. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 1.9 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
