Subject: [PATCH] CVE-2013-0292: dbus-gproxy: Verify sender of NameOwnerChanged signals to be o.f.DBus
ea891e
ea891e
Anyone can hop on the bus and emit a signal whose interface is
ea891e
o.f.DBus; it's expected at the moments that clients (and notably DBus
ea891e
libraries) check the sender.
ea891e
ea891e
This could previously be used to trick a system service using dbus-glib
ea891e
into thinking a malicious signal came from a privileged source, by
ea891e
claiming that ownership of the privileged source's well-known name had
ea891e
changed from the privileged source's real unique name to the attacker's
ea891e
unique name.

ea891e
[altered to be NULL-safe so it won't crash on peer connections -smcv]
