Title:DSA-1837-1 dbus -- programming error
Description:It was discovered that the dbus_signature_validate function in dbus, a simple interprocess messaging system, is prone to a denial of service attack. This issue was caused by an incorrect fix for DSA-1658-1. For the stable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.1-5+lenny1. For the oldstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.2-1+etch3. Packages for ia64 and s390 will be released once they are available. For the testing distribution and the unstable distribution , this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.14-1. We recommend that you upgrade your dbus packages.
