Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2009-1189 (CCN-50385)

Assigned:2009-04-16
Published:2009-04-16
Updated:2023-02-13
Summary:The _dbus_validate_signature_with_reason function (dbus-marshal-validate.c) in D-Bus (aka DBus) before 1.2.14 uses incorrect logic to validate a basic type, which allows remote attackers to spoof a signature via a crafted key.
Note: this is due to an incorrect fix for CVE-2008-3834.

    V
    The _dbus_validate_signature_with_reason function (dbus-marshal-validate.c) in D-Bus (aka DBus) before 1.2.14 uses incorrect logic to validate a basic type, which allows remote attackers to spoof a signature via a crafted key. NOTE: this is due to an incorrect fix for CVE-2008-3834.
