Detail

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Ubuntu 9.10 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Ubuntu 10.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
libdbus-1-3 1.1.20-1ubuntu3.4

Ubuntu 9.10:
libdbus-1-3 1.2.16-0ubuntu9.1

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
libdbus-1-3 1.2.16-2ubuntu4.1

Ubuntu 10.10:
libdbus-1-3 1.4.0-0ubuntu1.1

After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes.

Details follow:

Remi Denis-Courmont discovered that D-Bus did not properly validate the number of nested variants when validating D-Bus messages. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service.
