Fixed In Version: dbus-1.6.12-14.el7_2 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, the dbus-daemon service incorrectly handled multiple messages containing file descriptors if they were received in a short time period. As a consequence, dbus-daemon leaked file descriptors and became unresponsive. A patch has been applied to correctly handle multiple file descriptors from different messages inside dbus-daemon. As a result, dbus-daemon closes and passes file descriptors correctly and no longer becomes unresponsive in the described situation.
