Deprecations:
• Eavesdropping is officially deprecated in favour of BecomeMonitor.
See the release notes for spec version 0.31 (in dbus 1.11.14).
• [Unix] Flag files in /var/run/console/${username} are deprecated.
See the release notes for 1.11.18.
New APIs:
• <allow> and <deny> rules in dbus-daemon configuration can now
include send_broadcast="true", send_broadcast="false",
max_unix_fds="N", min_unix_fds="N" (for some integer N).
See the release notes for 1.11.18.
• dbus_try_get_local_machine_id() is like
dbus_get_local_machine_id(), but returns a DBusError.
• New APIs around DBusMessageIter to simplify cleanup.
See the release notes for 1.11.16.
• The message bus daemon now implements the standard Introspectable,
Peer and Properties interfaces. See the release notes for
dbus 1.11.14 and spec version 0.31.
• DTDs for introspection XML and bus configuration are installed.
• [Unix] A new unix:dir=… address family resembles unix:tmpdir=… but
never uses Linux abstract sockets, which is advantageous for
containers. On non-Linux it is equivalent to unix:tmpdir=….
See the release notes for dbus 1.11.14 and spec version 0.31.
• [Unix] New option "dbus-launch --exit-with-x11".
• [Unix] Session managers can create transient .service files in
$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/dbus-1/services. See the release notes for 1.11.12.
• [Unix] A sysusers.d snippet can create the messagebus user on-demand.
Miscellaneous behaviour changes:
• [Unix] The session bus now logs to syslog if it was started by
dbus-launch.
• [Unix] Internal warnings are logged to syslog if configured.
• [Unix] Exceeding an anti-DoS limit is logged to syslog if configured,
or to stderr.

* Fixes
+ Re-order dbus-daemon startup so that on SELinux systems, the
thread that reads AVC notifications retains the ability to
write to the audit log (fdo#92832, Debian #857660; Laurent
Bigonville)
+ Fix a harmless read overflow and some memory leaks in a unit
test (fdo#100568, Philip Withnall)
* Wed Mar 01 2017 sflees@suse.de
- Update to 1.10.16
Fixes:
* Prevent symlink attacks in the nonce-tcp transport on Unix that could
allow an attacker to overwrite a file named "nonce", in a directory
that the user running dbus-daemon can write, with a random value
known only to the user running dbus-daemon. This is unlikely to be
exploitable in practice, particularly since the nonce-tcp transport
is really only useful on Windows.
(fd.o #99828, Simon McVittie) (bsc#1025950)
* Avoid symlink attacks in the "embedded tests", which are not enabled
by default and should never be enabled in production builds of dbus.
(fd.o #99828, Simon McVittie) (bsc#1025951)
* Work around an undesired effect of the fix for CVE-2014-3637
(fd.o #80559), in which processes that frequently send fds, such as
logind during a flood of new PAM sessions, can get disconnected for
continuously having at least one fd "in flight" for too long;
dbus-daemon interprets that as a potential denial of service attack.
The workaround is to disable that check for uid 0 process such as
logind, with a message in the system log. The bug remains open while
we look for a more general solution.
(fd.o #95263, LP#1591411; Simon McVittie)
* Don't run the test test-dbus-launch-x11.sh if X11 autolaunching
was disabled at compile time. That test is not expected to work
in that configuration. (fd.o #98665, Simon McVittie)
Enhancements:
* Do the Travis-CI build in Docker containers for Ubuntu LTS, Debian
stable and Debian testing in addition to the older Ubuntu that is
the default (fd.o #98889, Simon McVittie)
* Thu Feb 02 2017 sflees@suse.de
- A note for scripts bsc#974092 (remove sysvinit script) is already
fixed here.

- Add systemd unit files to start session bus via systemd
- Added patch:
* 0001-Drop-Install-sections-from-user-services.patch
+ remove install section from socket unit because it does not
need to be enabled explicitly (see fdo#92402)
* Fri Dec 09 2016 fstrba@suse.com

names that don't exist in newer systemd
* Thu Dec 08 2016 jengelh@inai.de
- Drop useless --with-pic which is only for static libs

- Solves [bnc#934214]
* Tue Oct 11 2016 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.10.12
* Security fixes:
+ Do not treat ActivationFailure message received from
root-owned systemd name as a format string. In principle this
is a security vulnerability, but we do not believe it is
exploitable in practice, because only privileged processes can
own the org.freedesktop.systemd1 bus name, and systemd does
not appear to send activation failures that contain "%".
Please note that this probably *was* exploitable in dbus
versions older than 1.6.30, 1.8.16 and 1.9.10 due to a missing
check which at the time was only thought to be a denial of
service vulnerability (CVE-2015-0245). If you are still
running one of those versions, patch or upgrade immediately.
(fdo#98157, bsc#1003898, Simon McVittie)
* Other fixes:
+ Harden dbus-daemon against malicious or incorrect
ActivationFailure messages by rejecting them if they do not
come from a privileged process, or if systemd activation is
not enabled (fdo#98157, Simon McVittie)
+ Avoid undefined behaviour when setting reply serial number
without going via union DBusBasicValue (fdo#98035, Marc Mutz)
+ autogen.sh: fail cleanly if autoconf fails (Simon McVittie)
* Tue Sep 13 2016 mvidner@suse.com
- Moved dbus-run-session from dbus-1-x11 to dbus-1 (bdo#836296)
* Mon Aug 22 2016 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.10.10
* Fixes:
+ On Linux, when dbus-daemon is run with reduced susceptibility
to the OOM killer (typically via systemd), do not let child
processes inherit that setting (fdo#32851;
Kimmo Hämäläinen, WaLyong Cho)
+ Output valid shell syntax in ~/.dbus/session-bus/ if the bus
address contains a semicolon (fdo#94746, Thiago Macieira)
+ Fix memory leaks and thread safety in subprocess starting on
Windows (fdo#95191, Ralf Habacker)
+ Do not require systemd to have a service file if using it for
activation (fdo#93194; Simon McVittie; backport from 1.11.0)
+ Stop test-dbus-daemon incorrectly failing on platforms that
cannot discover the process ID of clients (fdo#96653,
Руслан Ижбулатов)
+ In tests that exercise correct handling of crashing D-Bus
services, suppress Windows crash handler (fdo#95155;
Yiyang Fei, Ralf Habacker)
+ Explicitly check for stdint.h (Ioan-Adrian Ratiu)
+ update-activation-environment: produce better diagnostics on
error (fdo#96653, Simon McVittie)
+ Don't fail the build with an unused const variable warning
under gcc 6 (fdo#97282; Thomas Zimmermann, Simon McVittie)
+ Merge dbus-1.10-ci branch, containing backports from 1.11.0
in build/test code to support continuous integration
(fdo#93194, Simon McVittie)
- Avoid -Wunused-label when compiling with libselinux but no
libaudit
- In development builds, allow OOM tests to be disabled as
documented
- Accept and ignore the --tap argument in all "embedded
tests", and run all automated tests with that argument for
better diagnostics
- Fix the systemd activation test under CMake by installing
the required files
- In Automake, fix shell syntax for installcheck-local with
no DESTDIR
- In Automake, don't try to run manual tests in installcheck
- In CMake, don't run manual-tcp test as an automated test
- Add travis-ci.org build machinery
* Mon Mar 14 2016 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.10.8
* Fixes:
+ Enable "large file support" on systems where it exists:
dbus-daemon is not expected to open large files, but it might
need to stat files that happen to have large inode numbers
(fdo#93545, Hongxu Jia)
+ Eliminate padding inside DBusMessageIter on 64-bit platforms,
which might result in a pedantic C compiler not copying the
entire contents of a DBusMessageIter; statically assert that
this is not an ABI change in practice (fdo#94136, Simon
McVittie)
+ Document dbus-test-tool echo --sleep-ms=N instead of
incorrect --sleep=N (fdo#94244, Dmitri Iouchtchenko)
+ Correctly report test failures in C tests from run-test.sh
(fdo#93379; amit tewari, Simon McVittie)
+ When tests are enabled, run all the marshal-validate tests,
not just the even-numbered ones (fdo#93908, Nick Lewycky)
+ Correct the expected error from one marshal-validate test,
which was previously not run due to the above bug(fdo#93908,
Simon McVittie)
* Thu Dec 03 2015 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.10.6
* Fixes:
- On Unix when running tests as root, don't assert that root
and the dbus-daemon user can still call
UpdateActivationEnvironment; assert that those privileged
users can call BecomeMonitor instead (fdo#93036, Simon
McVittie)
- On Windows, fix a memory leak in the autolaunch transport
(fdo#92899, Simon McVittie)
- On Windows Autotools builds, don't run tests that rely on
dbus-run-session and other Unix-specifics (fdo#92899, Simon
McVittie)
* Thu Nov 26 2015 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.10.4
* Changes between 1.10.2 and 1.10.4
- Enhancements:
+ GetConnectionCredentials, GetConnectionUnixUser and
GetConnectionUnixProcessID with argument
"org.freedesktop.DBus" will now return details of the
dbus-daemon itself. This is required to be able to call
SetEnvironment on systemd. (fdo#92857, Jan Alexander
Steffens)
- Fixes:
+ Make UpdateActivationEnvironment always fail with
AccessDenied on the system bus. Previously, it was
possible to configure it so root could call it, but the
environment variables were not actually used, because the
launch helper would discard them. (fdo#92857, Jan Alexander
Steffens)
+ On Unix with --systemd-activation on a user bus, make
UpdateActivationEnvironment pass on its arguments to
systemd's SetEnvironment method, solving inconsistency
between the environments used for traditional activation
and systemd user-service activation. (fdo#92857, Jan
Alexander Steffens)
+ On Windows, don't crash if <syslog/> or --syslog is used
(fdo#92538, Ralf Habacker)
+ On Windows, fix a memory leak when setting a DBusError from
a Windows error (fdo#92721, Ralf Habacker)
+ On Windows, don't go into infinite recursion if we abort the
process with backtraces enabled (fdo#92721, Ralf Habacker)
+ Fix various failing tests, variously on Windows and
cross-platform:
. don't test system.conf features (users, groups) that only
make sense on the system bus, which is not supported on
Windows
. don't call _dbus_warn() when we skip a test, since it is
fatal
. fix computation of expected <standard_session_servicedirs/>
. when running TAP tests, translate newlines to Unix format,
fixing cross-compiled tests under Wine on Linux
. don't stress-test refcounting under Wine, where it's
really slow
. stop assuming that a message looped-back to the test will
be received immediately
. skip some system bus tests on Windows since they make no
sense there (fdo#92538, fdo#92721; Ralf Habacker, Simon
McVittie)
* Changes between 1.10.0 and 1.10.2
- Fixes:
+ Correct error handling for activation: if there are multiple
attempts to activate the same service and it fails
immediately, the first attempt would get the correct reply,
but the rest would time out. We now send the same error
reply to each attempt. (fdo#92200, Simon McVittie)
+ If BecomeMonitor is called with a syntactically invalid
match rule, don't crash with an assertion failure, fixing a
regression in 1.9.10. This was not exploitable as a denial
of service, because the check for a privileged user is done
first. (fdo#92298, Simon McVittie)
+ On Linux with --enable-user-session, add the bus address to
the environment of systemd services for better backwards
compatibility (fdo#92612, Jan Alexander Steffens)
+ On Windows, fix the logic for replacing the installation
prefix in service files' Exec lines (fdo#83539; Milan Crha,
Simon McVittie)
+ On Windows, if installed in the conventional layout with
${prefix}/etc and ${prefix}/share, use relative paths
between bus configuration files to allow the tree to be
relocated (fdo#92028, Simon McVittie)
+ Make more of the regression tests pass in Windows builds
(fdo#92538, Simon McVittie)
* Summary of major changes since 1.8.0:
- The basic setup for the well-known system and session buses is
now done in read-only files in ${datadir} (normally /usr/share).
- AppArmor integration has been merged, with features similar to
the pre-existing SELinux integration. It is mostly compatible
with the patches previously shipped by Ubuntu, with one
significant change: Ubuntu's GetConnectionAppArmorSecurityContext
method has been superseded by GetConnectionCredentials and was
not included.
- The --enable-user-session configure option can be enabled
by OS integrators intending to use systemd to provide a
session bus per user (in effect, treating all concurrent
graphical and non-graphical login sessions as one large session).
- The new listenable address mode "unix:runtime=yes" listens on
$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus, the same AF_UNIX socket used by the
systemd user session. libdbus and "dbus-launch --autolaunch"
will connect to this address by default. GLib >= 2.45.3 and
sd-bus >= 209 have a matching default.
- All executables are now dynamically linked to libdbus-1.
Previously, some executables, most notably dbus-daemon, were
statically linked to a specially-compiled variant of libdbus.
This results in various private functions in the _dbus
namespace being exposed by the shared library. These are not
API, and must not be used outside the dbus source tree.
- On platforms with ELF symbol versioning, all public symbols
are versioned LIBDBUS_1_3.
* New bus APIs:
- org.freedesktop.DBus.GetConnectionCredentials returns
LinuxSecurityLabel where supported
- org.freedesktop.DBus.Monitoring interface (privileged)
. BecomeMonitor method supersedes match rules with eavesdrop=true,
which are now deprecated
- org.freedesktop.DBus.Stats interface (semi-privileged)
. now enabled by default
. new GetAllMatchRules method
- org.freedesktop.DBus.Verbose interface (not normally compiled)
. toggles the effect of DBUS_VERBOSE
* New executables:
- dbus-test-tool
- dbus-update-activation-environment
* New optional dependencies:
- The systemd: pseudo-transport requires libsystemd or libsd-daemon
- Complete documentation requires Ducktype and yelp-tools
- Full test coverage requires GLib 2.36 and PyGI
- AppArmor integration requires libapparmor and optionally libaudit
* Dependencies removed:
- dbus-glib
* Tue Nov 17 2015 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.8.20:
* Fixes:
- Fix a memory leak when GetConnectionCredentials() succeeds
(fdo#91008, Jacek Bukarewicz)
- Ensure that dbus-monitor does not reply to messages intended
for others (fdo#90952, Simon McVittie)
* Wed Sep 16 2015 fstrba@suse.com
- Account for openSUSE:Leap in the conditional for chosing right
local state directories (boo#941352)
* Wed May 27 2015 hrvoje.senjan@gmail.com
- Move common-begin sections around to make pre_checkin work again
- Unconditionally build with systemd features, there are no cycles
now, systemd no longer buildrequires dbus-1-devel
* Mon May 18 2015 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.8.18:
* Security hardening:
- On Unix platforms, change the default configuration for the
session bus to only allow EXTERNAL authentication (secure
kernel-mediated credentials-passing), as was already done for
the system bus.
This avoids falling back to DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1, which relies on
strongly unpredictable pseudo-random numbers; under certain
circumstances (/dev/urandom unreadable or malloc() returns
NULL), dbus could fall back to using rand(), which does not
have the desired unpredictability. The fallback to rand() has
not been changed in this stable-branch since the necessary
code changes for correct error-handling are rather intrusive.
If you are using D-Bus over the (unencrypted!) tcp: or
nonce-tcp: transport, in conjunction with DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1
and a shared home directory using NFS or similar, you will
need to reconfigure the session bus to accept DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1
by commenting out the <auth> element. This configuration is
not recommended. (bsc#931066, fdo#90414, Simon McVittie)
* Other fixes:
- Add locking to DBusCounter's reference count and notify
function (fdo#89297, Adrian Szyndela)
- Ensure that DBusTransport's reference count is protected by
the corresponding DBusConnection's lock (fdo#90312,
Adrian Szyndela)
- On Windows, listen on the same port for IPv4 and IPv6
(previously broken by an endianness mistake), and fix a
failure to bind TCP sockets on approximately 1 attempt in 256
(fdo#87999, Ralf Habacker)
- Correctly release DBusServer mutex before early-return if we
run out of memory while copying authentication mechanisms
(fdo#90021, Ralf Habacker)
- Correctly initialize all fields of DBusTypeReader (fdo#90021,
Ralf Habacker, Simon McVittie)
- Fix some missing \n in verbose (debug log) messages
(fdo#90021, Ralf Habacker)
- Clean up some memory leaks in test code (fdo#90021,
Ralf Habacker)
* Thu Mar 26 2015 fstrba@suse.com
- Sync changes from SLE12 conditionalized for suse_version <= 1315
* Mon Feb 09 2015 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.8.16:
* Security fixes:
- Do not allow non-uid-0 processes to send forged
ActivationFailure messages. On Linux systems with systemd
activation, this would allow a local denial of service:
unprivileged processes could flood the bus with these forged
messages, winning the race with the actual service activation
and causing an error reply to be sent back when service
auto-activation was requested. This does not prevent the real
service from being started, so it only works while the real
service is not running. (CVE-2015-0245, fdo#88811, bnc#916343;
Simon McVittie)
* Other fixes:
- fix a Windows build failure (fdo#88009, Ralf Habacker)
- on Windows, allow up to 8K connections to the dbus-daemon
instead of the previous 64, completing a previous fix which
only worked under Autotools (fdo#71297, Ralf Habacker)
* Tue Jan 06 2015 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.8.14
* Security hardening:
- Do not allow calls to UpdateActivationEnvironment from uids
other than the uid of the dbus-daemon. If a system service
installs unsafe security policy rules that allow arbitrary
method calls (such as CVE-2014-8148) then this prevents
memory consumption and possible privilege escalation via
UpdateActivationEnvironment.
We believe that in practice, privilege escalation here is
avoided by dbus-daemon-launch-helper sanitizing its
environment; but it seems better to be safe.
- Do not allow calls to UpdateActivationEnvironment or the
Stats interface on object paths other than
/org/freedesktop/DBus. Some system services install unsafe
security policy rules that allow arbitrary method calls to
any destination, method and interface with a specified object
path; while less bad than allowing arbitrary method calls,
these security policies are still harmful, since dbus-daemon
normally offers the same API on all object paths and other
system services might behave similarly.
* Other fixes:
- Add missing initialization so GetExtendedTcpTable doesn't
crash on Windows Vista SP0 (fdo#77008, Ilya A. Tkachenko)

- Update to 1.8.12:
* Fixes:
- Partially revert the CVE-2014-3639 patch by increasing the
default authentication timeout on the system bus from 5
seconds back to 30 seconds, since this has been reported to
cause boot regressions for some users, mostly with parallel
boot (systemd) on slower hardware.
On fast systems where local users are considered particularly
hostile, administrators can return to the 5 second timeout
(or any other value in milliseconds) by saving this as
/etc/dbus-1/system-local.conf:
<busconfig>
<limit name="auth_timeout">5000</limit>
</busconfig>
(fdo#86431, Simon McVittie)
- Add a message in syslog/the Journal when the auth_timeout is
exceeded (fdo#86431, Simon McVittie)
- Send back an AccessDenied error if the addressed recipient is
not allowed to receive a message (and in builds with
assertions enabled, don't assert under the same conditions).
(fdo#86194, Jacek Bukarewicz)
* Mon Nov 10 2014 fstrba@suse.com
- Update to 1.8.10:
* Security fixes:
- Increase dbus-daemon's RLIMIT_NOFILE rlimit to 65536
so that CVE-2014-3636 part A cannot exhaust the system bus'
file descriptors, completing the incomplete fix in 1.8.8.
