Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions D-Bus versions prior to 1.0.3 D-Bus versions 1.1.x prior to 1.1.20

Description The issue affects the dbus-daemon in D-Bus, allowing local users to bypass intended access restrictions via a method call with a NULL interface. This can lead to a violation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information.

Recommendations For D-Bus versions prior to 1.0.3, update to version 1.0.3 or later. For D-Bus versions 1.1.x prior to 1.1.20, update to version 1.1.20 or later. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the send interface attribute in the security policy to minimize the risk of exploitation.
