openSUSE Security Update : dbus-1 (openSUSE-SU-2015:0111-1)

high Nessus Plugin ID 80985

Language:

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

This update fixes the following security issues :

 - CVE-2014-8148 :

 - Do not allow calls to UpdateActivationEnvironment from uids other than the uid of the dbus-daemon. If a system service installs unsafe security policy rules that allow arbitrary method calls (such as CVE-2014-8148) then this prevents memory consumption and possible privilege escalation via UpdateActivationEnvironment.

 - CVE-2012-3524: Don't access environment variables (bnc#912016)

Solution

Update the affected dbus-1 packages.
