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 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...
