Bug Description

I am using ubuntu 14.04 gnome-session-fallback,and i want to shut down the system .
When I click the default top-right button located on the top gnome-panel,and ubuntu gives me a window or may be a widget named zenity.
And then no matter what I do to it ,including press any button on this window,or close it ,or press alt+F4 to terminate it, it will shut my system down, i can't even cancel it....
Well ,sorry for my broken poor english....

We are also affected by this bug. Ubuntu is:

DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS"

Zenity is:

ii zenity 3.8.0-1ubuntu1 amd64 Display graphical dialog boxes from shell scripts
ii zenity-common 3.8.0-1ubuntu1 all Display graphical dialog boxes from shell scripts (common files)

30% of the machines suffer from this.

A short ps aux returns:

/usr/bin/zenity --question --icon-name=system-shutdown --title=Shut Down --text=Are you sure you want to close all programs and shut down the computer? --ok-label=Shut Down --cancel-label=Cancel --no-wrap

Even if I kill zenity shutdown/logout/reboot follows depending on what one have called.

dbus versions on affected systems are: 1.6.18-0ubuntu4.3.
On the working 1.6.18-0ubuntu4.1

If you need additional information, please let me know.
