NetworkManager is a network link manager that attempts to keep a wired or wireless network connection active at all times. An information disclosure flaw was found in NetworkManager's D-Bus interface. A local attacker could leverage this flaw to discover sensitive information, such as network connection passwords and pre-shared keys. (CVE-2009-0365) Red Hat would like to thank Ludwig Nussel for responsibly reporting this flaw.
