- ------------------------------------------------------------------------Package        : dbus
Vulnerability  : programming error
Problem type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s)      : CVE-2008-0595

Havoc Pennington discovered that DBus, a simple interprocess messaging
system, performs insufficient validation of security policies, which
might allow local privilege escalation.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.2-1+etch1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.1.20-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your dbus packages.
