EULEROS-SA-2024-1907

Summary:

An update for glibc is now available for EulerOS V2.0SP10(x86_64)

EulerOS Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important.A Common Vunlnerability Scoring System(CVSS)base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVElink(s) in the References section.General:

The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a Linux system will not function.

Security Fix(es):

The iconv() function in the GNU C Library versions 2.39 and older may overflow the output buffer passed to it by up to 4 bytes when converting strings to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set, which may be used to crash an application or overwrite a neighbouring variable.(CVE-2024-2961)

nscd: Stack-based buffer overflow in netgroup cache.If the Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd) fixed size cache is exhausted by client requests then a subsequent client request for netgroup data may result in a stack-based buffer overflow. This flaw was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd.This vulnerability is only present in the nscd binary.(CVE-2024-33599)

nscd: Null pointer crashes after notfound response.If the Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd) cache fails to add a not-found netgroup response to the cache, the client request can result in a null pointer dereference. This flaw was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd.This vulnerability is only present in the nscd binary.(CVE-2024-33600)

nscd: netgroup cache may terminate daemon on memory allocation failure.The Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd) netgroup cache uses xmalloc or xrealloc and these...
