CVE-2017-16997 2 Gnu, Redhat 4 Glibc, Enterprise Linux Desktop, Enterprise Linux Server and 1 more 2020-10-15 9.3 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
elf/dl-load.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.19 through 2.26 mishandles RPATH and RUNPATH containing $ORIGIN for a privileged (setuid or AT_SECURE) program, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse library in the current working directory, related to the fillin_rpath and decompose_rpath functions. This is associated with misinterpretion of an empty RPATH/RUNPATH token as the "./" directory. NOTE: this configuration of RPATH/RUNPATH for a privileged program is apparently very uncommon; most likely, no such program is shipped with any common Linux distribution.
CVE-2018-6485 4 Gnu, Netapp, Oracle and 1 more 15 Glibc, Cloud Backup, Data Ontap Edge and 12 more 2020-08-24 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
An integer overflow in the implementation of the posix_memalign in memalign functions in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.26 and earlier could cause these functions to return a pointer to a heap area that is too small, potentially leading to heap corruption.
CVE-2019-7309 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2020-08-24 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
In the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.29, the memcmp function for the x32 architecture can incorrectly return zero (indicating that the inputs are equal) because the RDX most significant bit is mishandled.
CVE-2019-6488 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2020-06-13 4.6 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The string component in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.28, when running on the x32 architecture, incorrectly attempts to use a 64-bit register for size_t in assembly codes, which can lead to a segmentation fault or possibly unspecified other impact, as demonstrated by a crash in __memmove_avx_unaligned_erms in sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memmove-vec-unaligned-erms.S during a memcpy.
CVE-2010-3192 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2020-03-31 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
Certain run-time memory protection mechanisms in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) print argv[0] and backtrace information, which might allow context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory by executing an incorrect program, as demonstrated by a setuid program that contains a stack-based buffer overflow error, related to the __fortify_fail function in debug/fortify_fail.c, and the __stack_chk_fail (aka stack protection) and __chk_fail (aka FORTIFY_SOURCE) implementations.
CVE-2015-8985 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2020-03-31 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
The pop_fail_stack function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application crash) via vectors related to extended regular expression processing.
CVE-2003-0028 10 Cray, Freebsd, Gnu and 7 more 13 Unicos, Freebsd, Glibc and 10 more 2020-01-21 7.5 HIGH N/A
Integer overflow in the xdrmem_getbytes() function, and possibly other functions, of XDR (external data representation) libraries derived from SunRPC, including libnsl, libc, glibc, and dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain integer values in length fields, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-0391.
CVE-2017-12132 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2019-10-03 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
The DNS stub resolver in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before version 2.26, when EDNS support is enabled, will solicit large UDP responses from name servers, potentially simplifying off-path DNS spoofing attacks due to IP fragmentation.
CVE-2017-1000408 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2019-10-03 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
A memory leak in glibc 2.1.1 (released on May 24, 1999) can be reached and amplified through the LD_HWCAP_MASK environment variable. Please note that many versions of glibc are not vulnerable to this issue if patched for CVE-2017-1000366.
CVE-2018-1000001 3 Canonical, Gnu, Redhat 9 Ubuntu Linux, Glibc, Enterprise Linux Desktop and 6 more 2019-10-03 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
In glibc 2.26 and earlier there is confusion in the usage of getcwd() by realpath() which can be used to write before the destination buffer leading to a buffer underflow and potential code execution.
CVE-2017-15671 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2019-10-03 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
The glob function in glob.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.27, when invoked with GLOB_TILDE, could skip freeing allocated memory when processing the ~ operator with a long user name, potentially leading to a denial of service (memory leak).
CVE-2016-10739 2 Gnu, Opensuse 2 Glibc, Leap 2019-08-06 4.6 MEDIUM 5.3 MEDIUM
In the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.28, the getaddrinfo function would successfully parse a string that contained an IPv4 address followed by whitespace and arbitrary characters, which could lead applications to incorrectly assume that it had parsed a valid string, without the possibility of embedded HTTP headers or other potentially dangerous substrings.
CVE-2014-9761 5 Canonical, Fedoraproject, Gnu and 2 more 9 Ubuntu Linux, Fedora, Glibc and 6 more 2019-06-13 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long argument to the (1) nan, (2) nanf, or (3) nanl function.
CVE-2012-4412 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2019-06-13 7.5 HIGH N/A
Integer overflow in string/strcoll_l.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.17 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
CVE-2012-3405 3 Canonical, Gnu, Redhat 4 Ubuntu Linux, Glibc, Enterprise Linux and 1 more 2019-04-22 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in libc in GNU C Library (aka glibc) 2.14 and other versions does not properly calculate a buffer length, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFY_SOURCE format-string protection mechanism and cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and crash) via a format string with a large number of format specifiers that triggers "desynchronization within the buffer size handling," a different vulnerability than CVE-2012-3404.
CVE-2012-3404 3 Canonical, Gnu, Redhat 4 Ubuntu Linux, Glibc, Enterprise Linux and 1 more 2019-04-22 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in libc in GNU C Library (aka glibc) 2.12 and other versions does not properly calculate a buffer length, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFY_SOURCE format-string protection mechanism and cause a denial of service (stack corruption and crash) via a format string that uses positional parameters and many format specifiers.
CVE-2012-3406 3 Canonical, Gnu, Redhat 4 Ubuntu Linux, Glibc, Enterprise Linux and 1 more 2019-04-22 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in GNU C Library (aka glibc) 2.5, 2.12, and probably other versions does not "properly restrict the use of" the alloca function when allocating the SPECS array, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFY_SOURCE format-string protection mechanism and cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted format string using positional parameters and a large number of format specifiers, a different vulnerability than CVE-2012-3404 and CVE-2012-3405.
CVE-2005-3590 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2019-04-11 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
The getgrouplist function in the GNU C library (glibc) before version 2.3.5, when invoked with a zero argument, writes to the passed pointer even if the specified array size is zero, leading to a buffer overflow and potentially allowing attackers to corrupt memory.
CVE-2006-7254 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2019-04-11 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
The nscd daemon in the GNU C Library (glibc) before version 2.5 does not close incoming client sockets if they cannot be handled by the daemon, allowing local users to carry out a denial of service attack on the daemon.
CVE-2017-1000409 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2019-04-04 6.9 MEDIUM 7.0 HIGH
A buffer overflow in glibc 2.5 (released on September 29, 2006) and can be triggered through the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. Please note that many versions of glibc are not vulnerable to this issue if patched for CVE-2017-1000366.
