  Multiple integer overflow flaws, leading to stack-based buffer overflows,

  representation (strtod(), strtof(), and strtold()). If an application used
  such a function on attacker controlled input, it could cause the
  application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code.
  (CVE-2012-3480)

  All users of glibc are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
  contain a backported patch to correct these issues.");
