Synopsis:	Moderate: dbus security update
Issue date:	2011-03-22
CVE Names:	CVE-2010-4352

A denial of service flaw was discovered in the system for sending 
messages between applications. A local user could send a message with an 
excessive number of nested variants to the system-wide message bus, 
causing the message bus (and, consequently, any process using libdbus to 
receive messages) to abort. (CVE-2010-4352)

For the update to take effect, all running instances of dbus-daemon and 
all running applications using the libdbus library must be restarted, or 
the system rebooted.
