A path traversal vulnerability in GLib affects the client-side implementation of the D-Bus DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 SASL authentication mechanism. The flaw is caused by failure to validate the cookie_context parameter supplied by the server during authentication. In the vulnerable code path in glib/gio/gdbusauthmechanismsha1.c, including keyring_lookup_entry and mechanism_client_data_receive, a malicious D-Bus server can provide a crafted cookie_context containing traversal sequences so that the client resolves and reads files outside the intended cookie storage location. This allows attacker-controlled file access during authentication and can be used to verify guessed file contents against a generated hash, enabling disclosure of sensitive local data.
