Medium [CVE-2026-16730] session bus denial of service via EMFILE during peer setup
CVE-2026-16730Source published Source updated
A flaw was found in dbus-broker. When the process file-descriptor limit is reached, EMFILE/ENFILE errors during peer setup (notably SO_PEERPIDFD) are handled as fatal failures, causing the broker to exit. A local attacker who can open many connections to the user session bus can trigger this and deny service to the desktop session. Flatpak applications can reach the host session bus through the dbus proxy. Exploitation requires local access or a compromised application in the same user session.
