OESA-2026-3112 glib2 security update
GLib is a bundle of three formerly five low-level system libraries written in C and developed mainly by GNOME. GLib's code was separated from GTK, so it can be used by software other than GNOME and has been developed in parallel ever since. Security Fixes: A flaw was found in GLib. An off-by-one...

dbus before 1.10.28 1.12.x before 1.12.16 and 1.13.x before 1.13.12 as used in DBusServer in Canonical Upstart in Ubuntu 14.04 (and in some less common uses of dbus-daemon) allows cookie spoofing because of symlink mishandling in the reference implementation of DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 in the libdbus library. (This only affects the DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 authentication mechanism.) A malicious client with write access to its own home directory could manipulate a ~/.dbus-keyrings symlink to cause a DBusServer with a different uid to read and write in unintended locations. In the worst case this could result in the DBusServer reusing a cookie that is known to the malicious client and treating that cookie as evidence that a subsequent client connection came from an attacker-chosen uid allowing authentication bypass.

dbus: DBusServer DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 authentication bypass
A flaw was found in dbus. The implementation of DBUSCOOKIESHA1 is susceptible to a symbolic link attack. A malicious client with write access to its own home directory could manipulate a /.dbus-keyrings symlink to cause the DBusServer to read and write in unintended locations resulting in an...
