Description
Description
A flaw was found in D-Bus. In configurations where the daemon falls back to using the Unix select() mechanism for event monitoring, it does not verify whether file descriptor numbers exceed allocated limits. A local attacker can exploit this flaw by opening a large number of concurrent connections to trigger an out-of-bounds write on the stack. This can cause the daemon to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
