CVE-2016-3706 2 Gnu, Opensuse 2 Glibc, Opensuse 2024-11-21 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
Stack-based buffer overflow in the getaddrinfo function in sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors involving hostent conversion. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-4458.
CVE-2016-3075 4 Canonical, Fedoraproject, Gnu and 1 more 4 Ubuntu Linux, Fedora, Glibc and 1 more 2024-11-21 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
Stack-based buffer overflow in the nss_dns implementation of the getnetbyname function in GNU C Library (aka glibc) before 2.24 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption and application crash) via a long name.
CVE-2016-2856 3 Canonical, Debian, Gnu 3 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Glibc 2024-11-21 7.2 HIGH 8.4 HIGH
pt_chown in the glibc package before 2.19-18+deb8u4 on Debian jessie; the elibc package before 2.15-0ubuntu10.14 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and before 2.19-0ubuntu6.8 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS; and the glibc package before 2.21-0ubuntu4.2 on Ubuntu 15.10 and before 2.23-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and 16.10 lacks a namespace check associated with file-descriptor passing, which allows local users to capture keystrokes and spoof data, and possibly gain privileges, via pts read and write operations, related to debian/sysdeps/linux.mk. NOTE: this is not considered a vulnerability in the upstream GNU C Library because the upstream documentation has a clear security recommendation against the --enable-pt_chown option.
CVE-2016-1234 3 Fedoraproject, Gnu, Opensuse 4 Fedora, Glibc, Leap and 1 more 2024-11-21 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH

CVE-2016-10739 2 Gnu, Opensuse 2 Glibc, Leap 2024-11-21 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-2016-10228 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2024-11-21 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
The iconv program in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.31 and earlier, when invoked with multiple suffixes in the destination encoding (TRANSLATE or IGNORE) along with the -c option, enters an infinite loop when processing invalid multi-byte input sequences, leading to a denial of service.
CVE-2015-8985 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2024-11-21 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-2015-8984 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2024-11-21 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
The fnmatch function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.22 might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed pattern, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
CVE-2015-8983 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2024-11-21 6.8 MEDIUM 8.1 HIGH
Integer overflow in the _IO_wstr_overflow function in libio/wstrops.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.22 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to computing a size in bytes, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
CVE-2015-8982 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2024-11-21 6.8 MEDIUM 8.1 HIGH
Integer overflow in the strxfrm function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.21 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow.
CVE-2015-8779 6 Canonical, Debian, Fedoraproject and 3 more 10 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Fedora and 7 more 2024-11-21 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
Stack-based buffer overflow in the catopen function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long catalog name.
CVE-2015-8778 6 Canonical, Debian, Fedoraproject and 3 more 10 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Fedora and 7 more 2024-11-21 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
Integer overflow in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via the size argument to the __hcreate_r function, which triggers out-of-bounds heap-memory access.
CVE-2015-8777 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2024-11-21 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
The process_envvars function in elf/rtld.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allows local users to bypass a pointer-guarding protection mechanism via a zero value of the LD_POINTER_GUARD environment variable.
CVE-2015-8776 6 Canonical, Debian, Fedoraproject and 3 more 10 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Fedora and 7 more 2024-11-21 6.4 MEDIUM 9.1 CRITICAL
The strftime function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly obtain sensitive information via an out-of-range time value.
CVE-2015-7547 10 Canonical, Debian, F5 and 7 more 30 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Big-ip Access Policy Manager and 27 more 2024-11-21 6.8 MEDIUM 8.1 HIGH
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the (1) send_dg and (2) send_vc functions in the libresolv library in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted DNS response that triggers a call to the getaddrinfo function with the AF_UNSPEC or AF_INET6 address family, related to performing "dual A/AAAA DNS queries" and the libnss_dns.so.2 NSS module.
CVE-2015-5277 3 Canonical, Gnu, Redhat 6 Ubuntu Linux, Glibc, Enterprise Linux Desktop and 3 more 2024-11-21 7.2 HIGH N/A
The get_contents function in nss_files/files-XXX.c in the Name Service Switch (NSS) in GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.20 might allow local users to cause a denial of service (heap corruption) or gain privileges via a long line in the NSS files database.
CVE-2015-5180 2 Canonical, Gnu 2 Ubuntu Linux, Glibc 2024-11-21 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
res_query in libresolv in glibc before 2.25 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and process crash).

end_pattern (called from internal_fnmatch) in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.22 might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash), as demonstrated by use of the fnmatch library function with the **(!() pattern. NOTE: this is not the same as CVE-2015-8984; also, some Linux distributions have fixed CVE-2015-8984 but have not fixed this additional fnmatch issue.

CVE-2015-1473 2 Canonical, Gnu 2 Ubuntu Linux, Glibc 2024-11-21 6.4 MEDIUM N/A
The ADDW macro in stdio-common/vfscanf.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.21 does not properly consider data-type size during a risk-management decision for use of the alloca function, which might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation violation) or overwrite memory locations beyond the stack boundary via a long line containing wide characters that are improperly handled in a wscanf call.
