[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#510791: dhcdbd: /etc/dbus-1/system.d file needs alterations for fd.o #18961

[Simon McVittie]

Package: dhcdbd
Version: 3.0-5
Severity: normal
User: pkg-utopia-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: fdo-18961

dhcdbd's D-Bus system.d config should be updated to fix
non-deterministic allow/deny for messages with no interface; the D-Bus
upstream recommendation seems to be that every allow or deny rule with
send_interface="..." should have a suitable send_destination attribute too.

http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18961 is the D-Bus bug tracking
this; there have also been discussions on the D-Bus mailing list.

Please test the resulting package against the dbus package from
http://people.debian.org/~smcv/dbus-cve-2008-4311/ (you might be better
off waiting until hal's current RC bug has been fixed before you upgrade).

Regards from the Cambridge BSP,
    Simon
