 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2008:054
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Package : dbus
 Date    : February 28, 2008
 Affected: 2007.0, 2007.1, 2008.0
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 A vulnerability was discovered by Havoc Pennington in how the
 dbus-daemon applied its security policy.  A user with the ability
 to connect to the dbus-daemon could possibly execute certain method
 calls that they should not normally have access to.
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
 
 Users will have to reboot the system once these packages have been
 installed in order to prevent problems due to service dependencies
 on the messagebus service.
