This glibc update fixes a critical privilege escalation problem and the following security and non security issues :
bnc#892073: An off-by-one error leading to a heap-based buffer overflow was found in __gconv_translit_find(). An exploit that targets the problem is publicly available.
(CVE-2014-5119)
bnc#772242: Replace scope handing with master state
bnc#779320: Fix buffer overflow in strcoll (CVE-2012-4412)
bnc#818630: Fall back to localhost if no nameserver defined
bnc#828235: Fix missing character in IBM-943 charset
bnc#828637: Fix use of alloca in gaih_inet
bnc#834594: Fix readdir_r with long file names (CVE-2013-4237)
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
