CVE-2024-33601

nscd: netgroup cache may terminate daemon on memory allocation failure The
Name Service Cache Daemon’s (nscd) netgroup cache uses xmalloc or xrealloc
and these functions may terminate the process due to a memory allocation
failure resulting in a denial of service to the clients. The flaw was
introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd. This
vulnerability is only present in the nscd binary.
