Description John (J5) Palmieri 2005-08-29 20:44:59 UTC 
Description of problem:

If I login as root and create a session bus, then login as another user, I am
able to use dbus-send to connect to root's session bus.

To reproduce:
Login as root, open a terminal, echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS, write down the
address.
Run dbus-monitor --session

Login as another user on a console, run:
env DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=(address written down above) dbus-send
--dest=org.freedesktop.DBus --type=method_call --print-reply
/org/freedesktop/DBus org.freedesktop.DBus.ListServices

The dbus-send gives a message about not being able to print the return value,
and the dbus-monitor on root's session bus shows the ListServices request coming
through.
