+ * 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
