The Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CIQ crlsa-202676777 advisory. glibc: Process abort due to invalid memory in wordexp CVE-2026-6368 glibc: Denial of Service via stack exhaustion during tilde expansion CVE-2026-6791...

glibc: glibc: Process abort due to invalid memory in wordexp

A flaw was found in glibc GNU C Library. A local attacker or application using the wordexp function with the WRDEAPPEND flag can trigger the interface to return invalid memory in the wewordv member. This invalid memory, when subsequently processed by wordfree, may cause the process to abort,...

glibc: Glibc: Denial of Service via stack exhaustion during tilde expansion

A flaw was found in glibc. When processing paths that start with a tilde followed by a username, the wordexp function can be forced to allocate an excessive amount of memory on the program's stack. A remote attacker could exploit this by providing a very long username, leading to a stack exhausti...
