CVE-2008-0595 dbus security policy circumvention
* CVE-2008-0595 - security policy of the type <allow send_interface= "some.interface.WithMethods"/> work as an implicit allow for messages sent without an interface bypassing the default deny rules and potentially allowing restricted methods exported on the bus to be executed by unauthorized users. This patch fixes the issue. * bus/policy.c (bus_client_policy_check_can_send, bus_client_policy_check_can_receive): skip messages without an interface when evaluating an allow rule, and thus pass it to the default deny rules
