DISPUTED An integer overflow in util-linux through 2.37.1 can
potentially cause a buffer overflow if an attacker were able to use system
resources in a way that leads to a large number in the /proc/sysvipc/sem
file. NOTE: this is unexploitable in GNU C Library environments, and
possibly in all realistic environments.
