MDVA-2008:111 : dbus

high Nessus Plugin ID 37895

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

A race condition was preventing dbus from starting correctly when user authentication was network based (LDAP, etc.). This could prevent other desktop functions from working properly, such as device automounting. This update provides updated dbus and initscript packages that fix this issue. Both packages must be upgraded at the same time.

Solution

Update the affected package(s).
