CVE-2015-0235

CVE-2015-0235 (GHOST) is a heap-based buffer overflow in glibc’s __nss_hostname_digits_dots() used by gethostbyname/gethostbyname2. Affected glibc versions include 2.2 up to 2.17; patched in glibc-2.18 and later. Exploitation could allow remote or context-dependent arbitrary code execution depend...

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...
