2015-02-16doc: Add a guide to designing D-Bus APIsPhilip Withnall3-2/+930
This guide gives some pointers on how to write D-Bus APIs which are nice to use. It adds an optional dependency on Ducktype and yelp-build from yelp-tools. These are used when available, but are not required unless --enable-ducktype-docs is passed to configure. They are required for uploading the docs, however.

2014-10-28dbus-spec, dbus-protocol: add ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION flagSimon McVittie1-0/+60
Heavily based on a patch from Lennart Poettering. This is useful for authentication frameworks such as polkit, but this flag is supposed to be generic, and not be bound to any implementation of such a framework. The dbus specification already clarifies that unknown flags must be ignored, the reference implementation and the other implementations we checked indeed ignore any new flags, hence we should be fine with compatibility here.

2014-09-15config: add new limit: pending_fd_timeoutAlban Crequy1-0/+4
This is one of four commits needed to address CVE-2014-3637. When a file descriptor is passed to dbus-daemon, the associated D-Bus message might not be fully sent to dbus-daemon yet. Dbus-daemon keeps the file descriptor in the DBusMessageLoader of the connection, waiting for the rest of the message. If the client stops sending the remaining bytes, dbus-daemon will wait forever and keep that file descriptor. This patch adds pending_fd_timeout (milliseconds) in the configuration to disconnect a connection after a timeout when a file descriptor was sent but not the remaining message.

This is an important security measure. Without it, the system bus would not deliver its intended security properties. The actual implementation has always behaved like this, I think. Bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68597 Reviewed-by: Chengwei Yang <chengwei.yang@intel.com>
2013-11-27Do not require messages without INTERFACE to be dispatchedSimon McVittie1-6/+10
Previously, if we have interfaces: interface com.example.foo: method Ambiguous() interface com.example.bar: method Ambiguous() method Unambiguous() implementations were required to deliver a message with no INTERFACE and METHOD=Unambiguous to "bar". A message with no INTERFACE and METHOD=Ambiguous could either be delivered to "foo", delivered to "bar" or treated as an error. Relax this to allow an error for the unambiguous case, too, and strongly recommend specifying the interface (which is best-practice).
