The wordexp function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc) through 2.33 may
crash or read arbitrary memory in parse_param (in posix/wordexp.c) when
called with an untrusted, crafted pattern, potentially resulting in a
denial of service or disclosure of information. This occurs because atoi
was used but strtoul should have been used to ensure correct calculations.
