CVE-2014-3638 [LOW] CVE-2014-3638 dbus: denial of service in method call handling
CVE-2014-3638 dbus: denial of service in method call handling
A denial of service flaw was reported in D-Bus's method call handling. A local, malicious user could open a large number of parallel connections that all send the maximum number of method calls, causing subsequent calls to slow considerably.
It was reported that all versions of D-Bus are affected.
Acknowledgements:
Red Hat would like to thank D-Bus upstream for reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Alban Crequy as the original reporter.
