<description>
|
|
<p>When libdbus is used in a setuid program, a user can gain escalated
|
|
privileges by leveraging the DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS variable. GLib can
|
|
be used in a setuid context with D-Bus, and so can trigger this
|
|
vulnerability. Please review the CVE identifier below for more details.
