Memory corruption

The addmntent function in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.13 and earlier does not report an error status for failed attempts to write to the /etc/mtab file, which makes it easier for local users to trigger corruption of this file, as demonstrated by writes from a process with a small...

CVE-2011-1089

CVE-2011-1089 refers to a vulnerability in the GNU C Library (glibc/libc6) up to version 2.13 where addmntent does not report an error when writes to /etc/mtab fail. The issue enables local users to trigger corruption of /etc/mtab, demonstrated by a process with a small RLIMIT_FSIZE. This is a se...

CVE-2011-1658

ld.so in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.13 and earlier expands the $ORIGIN dynamic string token when RPATH is composed entirely of this token, which might allow local users to gain privileges by creating a hard link in an arbitrary directory to a 1 setuid or 2 setgid program with this RPA...

CVE-2011-1071

The GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 before 2.12.2 and Embedded GLIBC EGLIBC allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service memory consumption via a long UTF8 string that is used in an fnmatch call, aka a "stack extension attack," a related issue to...

CVE-2011-1071

CVE-2011-1071 affects the GNU C Library (glibc) and Embedded GLIBC (EGLIBC) prior to 2.12.2, with an underlying flaw in fnmatch() that lets context-dependent attackers supply a long UTF-8 string to trigger arbitrary code execution or memory exhaustion (DoS). Affected components include glibc in m...

CVE-2011-1658

CVE-2011-1658 affects the GNU C Library (glibc) ld.so: when RPATH consists entirely of the special token $ORIGIN, it can enable local privilege escalation by linking a crafted LD_PRELOAD with a setuid/setgid program. Affected are glibc versions 2.13 and earlier. The root cause is expansion of the...
