Original advisory details:

 It was discovered that zlib, vendored in klibc, incorrectly handled pointer
 arithmetic. An attacker could use this issue to cause klibc to crash or to
 possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-9840, CVE-2016-9841)

 Danilo Ramos discovered that zlib, vendored in klibc, incorrectly handled
 memory when performing certain deflating operations. An attacker could use
 this issue to cause klibc to crash or to possibly execute arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2018-25032)

 Evgeny Legerov discovered that zlib, vendored in klibc, incorrectly handled
 memory when performing certain inflate operations. An attacker could use
 this issue to cause klibc to crash or to possibly execute arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2022-37434)");
