It was discovered that GNU C Library incorrectly handled netgroup requests.
An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code.
This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-9984)

It was discovered that GNU C Library might allow context-dependent
attackers to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
(CVE-2015-20109)

It was discovered that GNU C Library when processing very long pathname arguments to
the realpath function, could encounter an integer overflow on 32-bit
architectures, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow and, potentially,
arbitrary code execution. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
(CVE-2018-11236)

It was discovered that the GNU C library getcwd function incorrectly
handled buffers. An attacker could use this issue to cause the GNU C
Library to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute
arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2021-3999)

Charles Fol discovered that the GNU C Library iconv feature incorrectly
handled certain input sequences. An attacker could use this issue to cause
the GNU C Library to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly
execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-2961)
