>Subject: [PATCH] DBusMessage: Fix UB (misaligned access) in call to
> _dbus_header_set_field_basic()
>
>The const void* 'value' pointer that is passed the address of a
>uint32_t here eventually ends up in _dbus_marshal_write_basic(), which
>casts it to a DBusBasicValue, a union type that has an alignment of
>eight on 64-bit platforms and is therefore more-aligned than the
>uint32.
>
>The read of a value of a more-aligned type through a pointer to a less
>-aligned type is undefined behaviour.
>
>Fix by storing the uint32 in a DBusBasicValue and passing that instead.
