41 with one another. GLib is a library providing a number of GNOME’s core
42 objects and functions.

45 <description>
46 <p>When libdbus is used in a setuid program, a user can gain escalated
47 privileges by leveraging the DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS variable. GLib can
48 be used in a setuid context with D-Bus, and so can trigger this
49 vulnerability. Please review the CVE identifier below for more details.
