glibc: __nss_hostname_digits_dots() heap-based buffer overflow

A heap-based buffer overflow was found in glibc's nsshostnamedigitsdots function, which is used by the gethostbyname and gethostbyname2 glibc function calls. A remote attacker able to make an application call either of these functions could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the...
