How to Fix CVE-2026-39959

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Tmds.DBus dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Tmds.DBus fixed: 0.92.0
Upgrade Tmds.DBus to 0.92.0
Tmds.DBus.Protocol fixed: 0.21.3
Upgrade Tmds.DBus.Protocol to 0.21.3
Tmds.DBus.Protocol fixed: 0.92.0
Upgrade Tmds.DBus.Protocol to 0.92.0
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

inspect dependencies for Tmds.DBus

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2026-39959, inspect your project dependencies for Tmds.DBus:

inspect dependencies for Tmds.DBus

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Tmds.DBus in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.92.0), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption, where the product does not properly control the allocation and maintenance of a limited resource. In Tmds.DBus, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Tmds.DBus and Tmds.DBus.Protocol are vulnerable to malicious D-Bus peers. A peer on the same bus can spoof signals by impersonating the owner of a well-known name, exhaust system resources or cause file descriptor spillover by sending messages with an excessive number of Unix file descriptors, and crash the application by sending malformed message bodies that cause unhandled exceptions on the SynchronizationContext. ### Patches The vulnerabilities are fixed in version 0.92.0. For Tmds.DBus.Protocol, the fixes are also backported to 0.21.3. ### Workarounds There are no known workarounds. Users should upgrade to a patched version.
