If your application is calling GDBus APIs from more than one thread
(it's unclear from your message whether it is or not), you should
certainly upgrade. GDBus earlier than 2.32 has known thread-safety bugs,
notably <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665211>.

If you can't upgrade all the way to 2.32 right now for whatever reason,
2.28 or 2.30, or perhaps even a later 2.26.x version, would still be an
improvement: for instance,
<https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651268> and
<https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662100> were both fixed
since 2.28.0.
