K16729408: D-Bus vulnerability CVE-2020-12049
Original Publication Date: 13 Apr, 2021
Security Advisory Description
An issue was discovered in dbus >= 1.3.0 before 1.12.18. The DBusServer in
libdbus, as used in dbus-daemon, leaks file descriptors when a message exceeds
the per-message file descriptor limit. A local attacker with access to the
D-Bus system bus or another system service's private AF_UNIX socket could use
this to make the system service reach its file descriptor limit, denying
service to subsequent D-Bus clients. (CVE-2020-12049)
Impact
A local attacker may cause a denial-of-service (DoS) attack or threaten the
availability of the system.
Security Advisory Status
F5 Product Development has assigned ID 1001369 (BIG-IP and BIG-IQ) to this
vulnerability.
To determine if your product and version have been evaluated for this
vulnerability, refer to the Applies to (see versions) box. To determine if your
release is known to be vulnerable, the components or features that are affected
by the vulnerability, and for information about releases, point releases, or
hotfixes that address the vulnerability, refer to the following table. For more
information about security advisory versioning, refer to K51812227:
Understanding security advisory versioning.
Note: After a fix is introduced for a given minor branch, that fix applies to
all subsequent maintenance and point releases for that branch, and no
additional fixes for that branch will be listed in the table. For example, when
a fix is introduced in 14.1.2.3, the fix also applies to 14.1.2.4, and all
later 14.1.x releases (14.1.3.x., 14.1.4.x). For more information, refer to
K51812227: Understanding security advisory versioning. Additionally, software
versions preceding those listed in the following table have reached the End of
Technical Support (EoTS) phase of their lifecycle and are no longer evaluated
for security issues. For more information, refer to the Security hotfixes
section of K4602: Overview of the F5 security vulnerability response policy.

Recommended Actions
If you are running a version listed in the Versions known to be vulnerable
column, you can eliminate this vulnerability by installing a version listed in
the Fixes introduced in column. If the Fixes introduced in column does not list
a version for your branch, then no update candidate currently exists for that
branch and F5 recommends upgrading to a version with the fix (refer to the
table).
If the Fixes introduced in column lists a version prior to the one you are
running, in the same branch, then your version should have the fix.
