Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls in D-Bus - CVE-2023-34969

Published: July 21, 2023


Vulnerability identifier: #VU78490
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 4.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34969
CWE-ID: CWE-264
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in the dbus-daemon when sending a reply message from the "bus driver". If a local privileged user (e.g. root) is using the org.freedesktop.DBus.Monitoring interface to monitor message bus traffic, another unprivileged user with the ability to connect to the same dbus-daemon can force the service to send an unreplyable message and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
