* Package name : xdg-dbus-proxy Version : 0.1.0 Upstream Author : Alexander Larsson * URL : https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-dbus-proxy * License : LGPL-2.1+ Programming Lang: C with GLib Description : filtering D-Bus proxy xdg-dbus-proxy is a filtering proxy for D-Bus connections. It was originally part of the Flatpak project, but it has been broken out as a standalone module to facilitate using it in other contexts. For this proxy to be useful, restricted D-Bus clients must be denied access to the normal D-Bus socket (for example by using containers or AppArmor rules), and instead given access to the listening Unix socket created by the proxy (typically by bind-mounting it into a Linux container). --- Flatpak currently uses a bundled copy of xdg-dbus-proxy 0.1.0 as a git submodule, but I expect to switch it to use this package when available. Development versions of WebKitGTK+ apparently use it for process sandboxing (presumably alongside bubblewrap) or will do so soon.
