Amazon Linux AMI : glibc (ALAS-2012-39)

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way the glibc library read timezone files. If a carefully-crafted timezone file was loaded by an application linked against glibc, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code wi...

Amazon Linux AMI : glibc (ALAS-2012-120)

Multiple integer overflow flaws, leading to stack-based buffer overflows, were found in glibc's functions for converting a string to a numeric representation strtod, strtof, and strtold. If an application used such a function on attacker controlled input, it could cause the application to crash o...
