identity of a wireless network and view sensitive information.
(CVE-2009-4144)

objects over D-Bus. A local user could read D-Bus signals to view other
users' network connection passwords and pre-shared keys. (CVE-2009-4145)

Emanuele Aina discovered that Avahi did not properly validate it's input when
processing data over D-Bus. A local attacker could send an empty TXT message
via D-Bus and cause a denial of service (failed assertion). This issue only
affected Ubuntu 6.06 LTS. (CVE-2007-3372)
Hugo Dias discovered that Avahi did not properly verify it's input when
processing mDNS packets. A remote attacker could send a crafted mDNS packet

CVE Id : CVE-2009-0365
Debian Bug : 519801
It was discovered that network-manager-applet, a network management
framework, lacks some dbus restriction rules, which allows local users
to obtain sensitive information.
If you have locally modified the /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-applet.conf
file, then please make sure that you merge the changes from this fix
when asked during upgrade.
Huge Dias discovered that the avahi daemon aborts with an assert error
if it encounters a UDP packet with source port 0 (CVE-2008-5081).
It was discovered that the avahi daemon aborts with an assert error if
it receives an empty TXT record over D-Bus (CVE-2007-3372).
For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 0.6.16-3etch2.
For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
Problem Description:
An input validation flaw was found in the Bluetooth Session Description
Protocol (SDP) packet parser used in the Bluez bluetooth utilities.
A bluetooth device with an already-trusted relationship, or a local
user registering a service record via a UNIX socket or D-Bus interface,
could cause a crash and potentially execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the hcid daemon (CVE-2008-2374).
The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Problem Description:
The Avahi daemon in 0.6.20 and previous allows attackers to cause a
denial of service via empty TXT data over D-Bus, which triggers an
assert error.
Updated packages have been patched to prevent this issue.

Software Description:
- language-selector: Language selector for Ubuntu Linux
Details:
Romain Perier discovered that the language-selector D-Bus backend did not
correctly check for Policy Kit authorizations. A local attacker could exploit
this to inject shell commands into the system-wide locale configuration file,
leading to root privilege escalation.
Update instructions:
A physically proximate attacker using a Bluetooth device with an
already established trust relationship could send specially crafted
requests, possibly leading to arbitrary code execution or a crash.
Exploitation may also be triggered by a local attacker registering a
service record via a UNIX socket or D-Bus interface.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
B. Security Updates adopted from Ubuntu
- ---------------------------------------
All Ubuntu Security Updates released since the last UPR-release until
20081202 are installed:
alacarte base-files dbus dbus-x11 firefox firefox-3.0
firefox-3.0-gnome-support firefox-gnome-support foo2zjs hpijs hplip
hplip-data libdbus-1-3 libgnutls13 libsmbclient libxml2 libxml2-utils
linux-restricted-modules-common login logrotate module-init-tools
openoffice.org-base-core openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-common
openoffice.org-core openoffice.org-draw openoffice.org-gnome
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
Details follow:
Sergey Nizovtsev discovered that Aptdaemon incorrectly filtered certain
arguments when using its D-Bus interface. A local attacker could use this
flaw to bypass security restrictions and view sensitive information by
reading arbitrary files.
