  - glib: g_file_replace() with G_FILE_CREATE_REPLACE_DESTINATION creates empty target for dangling symlink
    (CVE-2021-28153)

  - An issue was discovered in GNOME GLib before 2.66.7 and 2.67.x before 2.67.4. If g_byte_array_new_take()
    was called with a buffer of 4GB or more on a 64-bit platform, the length would be truncated modulo 2**32,
    causing unintended length truncation. (CVE-2021-27218)

  - A flaw was found in GLib. GVariant deserialization fails to validate that the input conforms to the
    expected format, leading to denial of service. (CVE-2023-29499)

  - A flaw was found in GLib. GVariant deserialization is vulnerable to a slowdown issue where a crafted
    GVariant can cause excessive processing, leading to denial of service. (CVE-2023-32611)

  - A flaw was found in glib, where the gvariant deserialization code is vulnerable to a denial of service
    introduced by additional input validation added to resolve CVE-2023-29499. The offset table validation may
    be very slow. This bug does not affect any released version of glib but does affect glib distributors who
    followed the guidance of glib developers to backport the initial fix for CVE-2023-29499. (CVE-2023-32636)

  - A flaw was found in GLib. GVariant deserialization is vulnerable to an exponential blowup issue where a
    crafted GVariant can cause excessive processing, leading to denial of service. (CVE-2023-32665)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package
is installed.");
