Vendor Workaround
Disable non-standard `nonce-tcp` listeners in the D-Bus configuration in favor of standard UNIX domain sockets. If network reachability is required, restrict access to trusted hosts using `firewalld`. To remove an exposed port from an untrusted firewall zone: ``` firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --remove-port=<PORT>/tcp firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-source=<TRUSTED_IP_OR_SUBNET> firewall-cmd --reload ``` Caveats: Restricting or disabling network listeners prevents remote clients outside the trusted subnet from connecting to the affected bus. Warning: Reloading the firewall rules or altering the D-Bus server configuration requires restarting the affected D-Bus service, which will drop existing connections and temporarily disrupt communications.

| Description | A flaw was found in dbus when configured with the nonce-tcp transport. An unauthenticated attacker able to connect to an exposed listener can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by opening a connection and withholding the expected authentication token. Because the server processes this verification without enforcing a timeout, the stalled connection blocks the accept process and prevents legitimate clients from establishing new connections. | |
