Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.891827
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-1827-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'gvfs' package(s) announced via the DLA-1827-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'gvfs' package(s) announced via the DLA-1827-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Simon McVittie discovered a flaw in gvfs, the Gnome Virtual File System. The gvfsd daemon opened a private D-Bus server socket without configuring an authorization rule. A local attacker could connect to this server socket and issue D-Bus method calls.

(Note that the server socket only accepts a single connection, so the attacker would have to discover the server and connect to the socket before its owner does.)

For Debian 8 Jessie, this problem has been fixed in version 1.22.2-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your gvfs packages.

Affected Software/OS:
'gvfs' package(s) on Debian 8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
4.6
