The vulnerabilities of the library that provides system calls and core functions in glibc allow a malicious actor to cause a service failure or execute arbitrary code.

Multiple vulnerabilities exist in the functions senddg and sendvc of the libresolv module’s library, which provides system calls and core functions for the glibc library. These vulnerabilities allow a malicious actor to trigger service failures or execute arbitrary code through a specially crafte...

Buffer Overflow in BSD libc Library Patched

The BSD libc library was updated recently to address a buffer overflow vulnerability that could have allowed an attacker to execute arbitrary code. The library is part of the POSIX library, which is used in BSD operating systems, like FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD. The libc library is also used in...

The vulnerability of libraries that provide system calls and basic functions of glibc and eglibc allows attackers to control the execution of the thread.

The vulnerability of the PTRMANGLE implementation in libraries that provide system calls and core functions of glibc and eglibc is related to the improper initialization of a random value for pointer protection. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker to control the execution of the thre...

The vulnerabilities of the library that handles system calls and the core functions of glibc allow attackers to trigger a service failure.

The multiple vulnerabilities in the malloc/malloc.c file of the library that provides system calls and core functions of glibc are caused by integer overflows. Exploiting these vulnerabilities can allow an attacker to trigger a service failure damage to dynamic memory by specifying an excessively...
