Descriptions

The default configuration of system.conf in D-Bus (aka DBus) before 1.2.6 omits the send_type attribute in certain rules, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions by (1) sending messages, related to send_requested_reply; and possibly (2) receiving messages, related to receive_requested_reply.

La configuración por defecto de system.conf en
D-Bus (alias DBus) y versiones anteriores a 1.2.6 omite el atributo send_type en ciertas reglas, el cual permite a los usuarios locales evitar las restricciones de acceso (1) enviando mensajes, en relación a send_requested_reply; y posiblemente (2) recibiendo mensajes, relativos a receive_requested_reply.
