glibc: glibc: Invalid DNS hostname returned via gethostbyaddr functions

A flaw was found in the GNU C library glibc. When applications use the gethostbyaddr or gethostbyaddrr functions with a nsswitch.conf configuration that specifies glibc's DNS backend, the library may return an invalid DNS hostname. This violates the DNS specification and could lead to application...
