CVE-2023-25139

A vulnerability was found in glibc. When the printf family of functions is called with a format specifier that uses an apostrophe (enable grouping) and a minimum width specifier, the resulting output could be larger than reasonably expected by a caller that computed a tight bound on the buffer size. The resulting larger-than-expected output could result in a buffer overflow in the printf family of functions.

Mitigation

An application compiled with stack protector enabled can mitigate this issue.
