SUSE CVE-2026-4437

Calling gethostbyaddr or gethostbyaddrr with a configured nsswitch.conf that specifies the library's DNS backend in the GNU C Library version 2.34 to version 2.43 could, with a crafted response from the configured DNS server, result in a violation of the DNS specification that causes the...

CVE-2026-4438

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...
