Descriptions

The daemon in GDM through 3.29.1 does not properly unexport display objects from its D-Bus interface when they are destroyed, which allows a local attacker to trigger a use-after-free via a specially crafted sequence of D-Bus method calls, resulting in a denial of service or potential code execution.

El demonio en GDM hasta la versión 3.29.1 no desexporta correctamente objetos display desde su interfaz D-Bus cuando se destruyen. Esto permite que un atacante local desencadene un uso de memoria previamente liberada mediante una secuencia especialmente manipulada de llamadas del método D-Bus, lo que resulta en una denegación de servicio (DoS) o en la potencial ejecución de código.
