glibc: stack-based buffer overflow in netgroup cache

A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the glibc netgroup cache. In certain conditions, its possible to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow condition that can lead to a denial of service and potentially other malicious actions that impact confidentiality and integrity...

glibc: netgroup cache may terminate daemon on memory allocation failure

A flaw was found in the glibc netgroup cache. The netgroup cache uses xmalloc/xrealloc and may terminate the process due to a memory allocation failure...

glibc: Out of bounds write in iconv may lead to remote code execution

An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the ISO-2022-CN-EXT plugin for glibc's iconv library. When converting from UCS4 charset, adding certain escape charterers is required to indicate where the charset was changed to the library. During this process, iconv improperly checks the boundaries of...

glibc: netgroup cache assumes NSS callback uses in-buffer strings

A flaw was found in the glibc netgroup cache. The buffer-resizing code in addgetnetgrentX assumes that all string pointers point into the supplied buffer. This can potentially lead to memory corruption and cause a crash...

USN-6737-1: GNU C Library vulnerability | Cloud Foundry

Severity Medium Vendor Canonical Ubuntu Versions Affected Canonical Ubuntu 22.04 Description Charles Fol discovered that the GNU C Library iconv feature incorrectly handled certain input sequences. An attacker could use this issue to cause the GNU C Library to crash, resulting in a denial of...

CentOS 8 : glibc (CESA-2024:3269)

The remote CentOS Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CESA-2024:3269 advisory. - The iconv function in the GNU C Library versions 2.39 and older may overflow the output buffer passed to it by up to 4 bytes when converting strings to the...

OESA-2024-1594 glibc security update

The GNU C Library project provides the core libraries for the GNU system and GNU/Linux systems, as well as many other systems that use Linux as the kernel. These libraries provide critical APIs including ISO C11, POSIX.1-2008, BSD, OS-specific APIs and more. These APIs include such foundational...

The vulnerability of the NSCCD server caching daemon in the GNU C Library allows a attacker to cause a service failure.

The vulnerability of the NSCCD daemon, a caching service for system names in the GNU C Library, involves returning a pointer beyond the expected range. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to cause a service failure...

glibc: null pointer dereferences after failed netgroup cache insertion

A flaw was found in the glibc netgroup cache. After a failed cache insertion, addgetnetgrentX tries to send the non-existing response after the not-found header. This can lead to a null pointer dereference that causes a crash or exit...

Oracle Linux 8 : glibc (ELSA-2024-2722)

The remote Oracle Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2024-2722 advisory. 2.28-236.0.1.13 - Forward port of Oracle patches. Reviewed-by: Jose E. Marchesi Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle...

The vulnerability of the NSCCD server caching daemon in the GNU C Library allows a attacker to cause a service failure.

The vulnerability of the NSCCD daemon, a caching service for system names in the GNU C Library, relates to the assignment of zero pointers. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker, operating remotely, to cause service failures...

The vulnerability of the NSCCD server caching service in the GNU C Library allows a attacker to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and accessibility of the protected information.

The vulnerability of the NSCCD daemon, a caching service for system names in the GNU C Library, is related to buffer overflow in the stack. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker operating remotely to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and accessibility of the protected...

CVE-2024-33600

nscd: Null pointer crashes after notfound response If the Name Service Cache Daemon's nscd cache fails to add a not-found netgroup response to the cache, the client request can result in a null pointer dereference. This flaw was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd. This...

AZL-40291 CVE-2024-33600 affecting package glibc for versions less than 2.38-11

nscd: Null pointer crashes after notfound response If the Name Service Cache Daemon's nscd cache fails to add a not-found netgroup response to the cache, the client request can result in a null pointer dereference. This flaw was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd. This...
