CVE-2012-3480

CVE-2012-3480 affects the GNU C Library (glibc/eglibc). Reports in connected documents describe multiple integer overflows in parser/conversion routines (strtod, strtof, strtold, strtod_l, and related functions) that can enable a local user to cause an application crash or possibly execute arbitr...

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 version 2.16 Description: The issue is caused by multiple integer overflows in various functions, including strtod, strtof, strtold, and strtod l, within the stdlib component of the GNU C Library. This can lea...

CVE-2012-3480

Multiple integer overflows in the 1 strtod, 2 strtof, 3 strtold, 4 strtodl, and other unspecified "related functions" in stdlib in GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.16 allow local users to cause a denial of service application crash and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string, which...

glibc: incorrect size calculation in formatted printing can lead to FORTIFY_SOURCE format string protection bypass

The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in libc in GNU C Library aka glibc 2.12 and other versions does not properly calculate a buffer length, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFYSOURCE format-string protection mechanism and cause a denial of service stack...

glibc: printf() unbound alloca() usage in case of positional parameters + many format specs

The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in GNU C Library aka glibc 2.5, 2.12, and probably other versions does not "properly restrict the use of" the alloca function when allocating the SPECS array, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFYSOURCE format-string...

CVE-2012-3405

The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in libc in GNU C Library aka glibc 2.14 and other versions does not properly calculate a buffer length, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFYSOURCE format-string protection mechanism and cause a denial of service segmentati...

glibc: FORTIFY_SOURCE format string protection bypass via "nargs" integer overflow

Integer overflow in the vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in glibc 2.14 and other versions allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFYSOURCE protection mechanism, conduct format string attacks, and write to arbitrary memory via a large number of arguments...

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS / 10.04 LTS / 10.10 / 11.04 / 11.10 : eglibc, glibc vulnerabilities (USN-1396-1)

It was discovered that the GNU C Library did not properly handle integer overflows in the timezone handling code. An attacker could use this to possibly execute arbitrary code by convincing an application to load a maliciously constructed tzfile. CVE-2009-5029 It was discovered that the GNU C...

glibc: Suid mount helpers fail to anticipate RLIMIT_FSIZE

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...

glibc: __tzfile_read integer overflow to buffer overflow

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way the glibc library read timezone files. If a carefully-crafted timezone file was loaded by an application linked against glibc, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code wi...

glibc: ldd unexpected code execution issue

ldd in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.13 and earlier allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse executable file linked with a modified loader that omits certain LDTRACELOADEDOBJECTS checks. NOTE: the GNU C Library vendor states "This is just nonsense. There are a gazillion...

glibc: fnmatch() alloca()-based memory corruption flaw

Integer overflow in posix/fnmatch.c in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.13 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service application crash via a long UTF8 string that is used in an fnmatch call with a crafted pattern argument, a different vulnerability than...

glibc: ld.so d_tag signedness error in elf_get_dynamic_info

Integer signedness error in the elfgetdynamicinfo function in elf/dynamic-link.h in ld.so in the GNU C Library aka glibc or libc6 2.0.1 through 2.11.1, when the --verify option is used, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted ELF program with a negative value...
