-Fixes:
+Security fixes:
+
+• On Linux ≥ 2.6.37-rc4, if sendmsg() fails with ETOOMANYREFS, silently drop
+ the message. This prevents an attack in which a malicious client can
+ make dbus-daemon disconnect a system service, which is a local
+ denial of service.
+ (fd.o #80163, CVE-2014-3532; Alban Crequy)
+
+• Track remaining Unix file descriptors correctly when more than one
+ message in quick succession contains fds. This prevents another attack
+ in which a malicious client can make dbus-daemon disconnect a system
+ service.
+ (fd.o #79694, fd.o #80469, CVE-2014-3533; Alejandro Martínez Suárez,
+ Simon McVittie, Alban Crequy)
+
+Other fixes:
• When dbus-launch --exit-with-session starts a dbus-daemon but then cannot
attach to a session, kill the dbus-daemon as intended
