Reference: MLIST:[oss-security] 20090206 CVE Request - Wicd <= 1.5.8
Reference: URL:http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2009/02/06/4

The DBus configuration file for Wicd before 1.5.9 allows arbitrary
users to own org.wicd.daemon, which allows local users to receive
messages that were intended for the Wicd daemon, possibly including
credentials.
