Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the 1 senddg and 2 sendvc functions in the libresolv library in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 before 2.23 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted DNS response that triggers a call to...

GNU glibc getaddrinfo() stack buffer overflow vulnerability

GNU glibc is an open source C compiler released under the LGPL license and is an implementation of the C library for the Linux operating system. A stack overflow vulnerability exists in the getaddrinfo function of glibc when processing a specific dns response packet, which can be exploited by an...

USN-2900-1 eglibc, glibc vulnerability

It was discovered that the GNU C Library incorrectly handled receiving responses while performing DNS resolution. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause the GNU C Library to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code...

glibc: getaddrinfo stack-based buffer overflow

A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the way the libresolv library performed dual A/AAAA DNS queries. A remote attacker could create a specially crafted DNS response which could cause libresolv to crash or, potentially, execute code with the permissions of the user running the library. Note...
