Fedora 19 : glibc-2.17-21.fc19 (2014-9830)

An off-by-one heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in glibc's internal gconvtranslitfind function. An attacker able to make an application call the iconvopen function with a specially crafted argument could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of that...

glibc: Invalid-free when using getaddrinfo()

An invalid free flaw was found in glibc's getaddrinfo function when used with the AIIDN flag. A remote attacker able to make an application call this function could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the application. Note that this flaw only affected...

glibc: Buffer overwrite when using readdir_r on file systems returning file names longer than NAME_MAX characters

An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the way the glibc's readdirr function handled file system entries longer than the NAMEMAX character constant. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted NTFS or CIFS file system that, when processed by an application using readdirr, would cause th...

glibc: Stack (frame) overflow in getaddrinfo() when called with AF_INET6

It was found that getaddrinfo did not limit the amount of stack memory used during name resolution. An attacker able to make an application resolve an attacker-controlled hostname or IP address could possibly cause the application to exhaust all stack memory and crash...
