* CVE-2014-3477: deliver activation errors correctly, fixing Denial of ServiceAlban Crequy2014-06-051-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | How it should work: When a D-Bus message activates a service, LSMs (SELinux or AppArmor) check whether the message can be delivered after the service has been activated. The service is considered activated when its well-known name is requested with org.freedesktop.DBus.RequestName. When the message delivery is denied, the service stays activated but should not receive the activating message (the message which triggered the activation). dbus-daemon is supposed to drop the activating message and reply to the sender with a D-Bus error message. However, it does not work as expected: 1. The error message is delivered to the service instead of being delivered to the sender. As an example, the error message could be something like: An SELinux policy prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient, [...] member="MaliciousMethod" If the sender and the service are malicious confederates and agree on a protocol to insert information in the member name, the sender can leak information to the service, even though the LSM attempted to block the communication between the sender and the service. 2. The error message is delivered as a reply to the RequestName call from service. It means the activated service will believe it cannot request the name and might exit. The sender could activate the service frequently and systemd will give up activating it. Thus the denial of service. The following changes fix the bug: - bus_activation_send_pending_auto_activation_messages() only returns an error in case of OOM. The prototype is changed to return TRUE, or FALSE on OOM (and its only caller sets the OOM error). - When a client is not allowed to talk to the service, a D-Bus error message is pre-allocated to be delivered to the client as part of the transaction. The error is not propagated to the caller so RequestName will not fail (except on OOM).

* Don't drop pending activations when reloading configurationColin Walters2010-01-281-0/+4
| | | | | | | | The reload handling for activation simply dropped all knowledge of pending activations, which was clearly wrong. Refactor things so that reload only reloads directories, server address etc. Based on a patch originally from Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

* Store what environment to activate with on activation objectRay Strode2008-07-121-0/+5
| | | | | | | | We now keep the environment in a hash table member of the activation object and provide a method bus_activation_set_environment_variable to modify the hash table. This hash table is seeded initially with the environment of the bus daemon itself.
