Ubuntu Security Notice 1576-2 - USN-1576-1 fixed vulnerabilities in DBus. The update caused a regression for certain services launched from the activation helper, and caused an unclean shutdown on upgrade. This update fixes the problem. Sebastian Krahmer discovered that DBus incorrectly handled environment variables when running with elevated privileges. A local attacker could possibly exploit this flaw with a setuid binary and gain root privileges. Various other issues were also addressed.
