CVE-2022-42010 [MEDIUM] DBus vulnerabilities
Title: DBus vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in DBus.
It was discovered that DBus incorrectly handled messages with invalid type
signatures. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to cause DBus to
crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2022-42010)

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If im
