res_query in libresolv in glibc before 2.25 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and process crash). (CVE-2015-5180)
Impact
For this vulnerability, an attacker must have local access to the system and know how to make the glibc function trigger an exploit. The attacker may be able to dereference a NULL pointer and cause an application to restart.
