CVE-2012-3404 3 Canonical, Gnu, Redhat 4 Ubuntu Linux, Glibc, Enterprise Linux and 1 more 2025-04-11 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-2010-3192 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-11 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-2009-5064 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-11 6.9 MEDIUM N/A
ldd in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.13 and earlier allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse executable file linked with a modified loader that omits certain LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS checks. NOTE: the GNU C Library vendor states "This is just nonsense. There are a gazillion other ways to introduce code if people are downloading arbitrary binaries and install them in appropriate directories or set LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc.
CVE-2013-4332 2 Gnu, Redhat 2 Glibc, Enterprise Linux 2025-04-11 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
Multiple integer overflows in malloc/malloc.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.18 and earlier allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (heap corruption) via a large value to the (1) pvalloc, (2) valloc, (3) posix_memalign, (4) memalign, or (5) aligned_alloc functions.
CVE-2010-4051 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-11 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The regcomp implementation in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.11.3, and 2.12.x through 2.12.2, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a regular expression containing adjacent bounded repetitions that bypass the intended RE_DUP_MAX limitation, as demonstrated by a {10,}{10,}{10,}{10,}{10,} sequence in the proftpd.gnu.c exploit for ProFTPD, related to a "RE_DUP_MAX overflow."
CVE-2010-0015 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-09 7.5 HIGH N/A
nis/nss_nis/nis-pwd.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.7 and Embedded GLIBC (EGLIBC) 2.10.2 adds information from the passwd.adjunct.byname map to entries in the passwd map, which allows remote attackers to obtain the encrypted passwords of NIS accounts by calling the getpwnam function.
CVE-2002-1146 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-03 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The BIND 4 and BIND 8.2.x stub resolver libraries, and other libraries such as glibc 2.2.5 and earlier, libc, and libresolv, use the maximum buffer size instead of the actual size when processing a DNS response, which causes the stub resolvers to read past the actual boundary ("read buffer overflow"), allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash).
CVE-2004-1453 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-03 2.1 LOW N/A
GNU glibc 2.3.4 before 2.3.4.20040619, 2.3.3 before 2.3.3.20040420, and 2.3.2 before 2.3.2-r10 does not restrict the use of LD_DEBUG for a setuid program, which allows local users to gain sensitive information, such as the list of symbols used by the program.
CVE-2004-1382 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-03 2.1 LOW N/A
The glibcbug script in glibc 2.3.4 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-0968.
CVE-2003-0859 5 Gnu, Intel, Quagga and 2 more 7 Glibc, Zebra, Ia64 and 4 more 2025-04-03 4.9 MEDIUM N/A
The getifaddrs function in GNU libc (glibc) 2.2.4 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service by sending spoofed messages as other users to the kernel netlink interface.
CVE-2003-0028 10 Cray, Freebsd, Gnu and 7 more 13 Unicos, Freebsd, Glibc and 10 more 2025-04-03 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-2000-0959 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-03 1.2 LOW N/A
glibc2 does not properly clear the LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT and LD_DEBUG environmental variables when a program is spawned from a setuid program, which could allow local users to overwrite files via a symlink attack.
CVE-2002-1265 3 Apple, Gnu, Sgi 4 Mac Os X, Mac Os X Server, Glibc and 1 more 2025-04-03 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The Sun RPC functionality in multiple libc implementations does not provide a time-out mechanism when reading data from TCP connections, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang).
CVE-2000-0824 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-03 7.2 HIGH N/A
The unsetenv function in glibc 2.1.1 does not properly unset an environmental variable if the variable is provided twice to a program, which could allow local users to execute arbitrary commands in setuid programs by specifying their own duplicate environmental variables such as LD_PRELOAD or LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
CVE-2002-0684 2 Gnu, Isc 2 Glibc, Bind 2025-04-03 7.5 HIGH N/A
Buffer overflow in DNS resolver functions that perform lookup of network names and addresses, as used in BIND 4.9.8 and ported to glibc 2.2.5 and earlier, allows remote malicious DNS servers to execute arbitrary code through a subroutine used by functions such as getnetbyname and getnetbyaddr.
CVE-2004-0968 2 Gnu, Redhat 3 Glibc, Enterprise Linux, Enterprise Linux Desktop 2025-04-03 2.1 LOW N/A
The catchsegv script in glibc 2.3.2 and earlier allows local users to overwrite files via a symlink attack on temporary files.
CVE-2000-0335 2 Gnu, Isc 2 Glibc, Bind 2025-04-03 7.5 HIGH N/A
The resolver in glibc 2.1.3 uses predictable IDs, which allows a local attacker to spoof DNS query results.
CVE-2023-25139 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-03-26 N/A 9.8 CRITICAL
sprintf in the GNU C Library (glibc) 2.37 has a buffer overflow (out-of-bounds write) in some situations with a correct buffer size. This is unrelated to CWE-676. It may write beyond the bounds of the destination buffer when attempting to write a padded, thousands-separated string representation of a number, if the buffer is allocated the exact size required to represent that number as a string. For example, 1,234,567 (with padding to 13) overflows by two bytes.
CVE-2023-6780 2 Fedoraproject, Gnu 2 Fedora, Glibc 2025-02-07 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
An integer overflow was found in the __vsyslog_internal function of the glibc library. This function is called by the syslog and vsyslog functions. This issue occurs when these functions are called with a very long message, leading to an incorrect calculation of the buffer size to store the message, resulting in undefined behavior. This issue affects glibc 2.37 and newer.
CVE-2023-6779 2 Fedoraproject, Gnu 2 Fedora, Glibc 2024-11-21 N/A 8.2 HIGH
An off-by-one heap-based buffer overflow was found in the __vsyslog_internal function of the glibc library. This function is called by the syslog and vsyslog functions. This issue occurs when these functions are called with a message bigger than INT_MAX bytes, leading to an incorrect calculation of the buffer size to store the message, resulting in an application crash. This issue affects glibc 2.37 and newer.
