CVE-2017-17426

The malloc function in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.26 could return a memory block that is too small if an attempt is made to allocate an object whose size is close to SIZEMAX, potentially leading to a subsequent heap overflow. This occurs because the per-thread cache aka tcache feature...
