I changed it to a security vulnerability. Open local ports with no
connection on the other end....... Sounds pretty pretty secure to me

Title:
  gvfsd-http not closing tcp connections

Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gvfs

  How to recreate the bug...

  Run Rhythmbox, and enable the context pane + album art, and lyrics for
  good measure as well. Close the plugins windows that pops up, click on
  the new icon next to the Ubuntu One Music store and your new window
  should show up. The context pane is great for me, as I love to know
  what I can about the music I listen to. Rhythmbox, through gvfsd-http
  has now fetched all your cool text from last.fm about your artist, but
  it does not close the connection. These connections stay in close_wait
  till you kill the gvfsd-http process.

  this happens any time gvfsd-http is used.
