-# D-Bus
-
-D-Bus is a well-known **IPC** (Inter-Process Communication) protocol (and
-daemon) that helps applications to talk to each other. The use of D-Bus is great
-because it allows to implement discovery and signaling.
-
-The D-Bus session is by default addressed by environment variable
-`DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS`. Using **systemd** variable
-`DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS` is automatically set for user sessions. D-Bus usage
-is linked to permissions.
-
-D-Bus has already had several [security
-issues](https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-13442/D-bus-Project.html)
-(mostly **DoS** issues), to allow applications to keep talking to each other. It
-is important to protect against this type of attack to keep the system more
-stable.
