From 7fab4e9e0674828ef3aaaddf2a6dc7f16408dec8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Havoc Pennington Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2010 21:08:43 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] CVE 2010-4352: Reject deeply nested variants Add DBUS_INVALID_NESTED_TOO_DEEPLY validity problem and a test that should generate it. Previously, we rejected deep nesting in the signature, but variants allow dynamic message nesting, conditional only on the depth of the message body. The nesting limit is 64, which was also the limit in static signatures. Empirically, dynamic nesting depth observed on my Fedora 14 system doesn't exceed 2; 64 is really a huge limit.
