Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2021-6749bfcfd9
2021-03-19 19:51:22.364960
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : glibc
Product : Fedora 34
Version : 2.33
Release : 5.fc34
URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/glibc/
Summary : The GNU libc libraries
Description :
The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by
multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and
memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is
kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package
contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C
library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a
Linux system will not function.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This update adds a `--list-diagnostics` argument to the dynamic loader. It also
contains the following bug fixes: * NSS modules are loaded again after `chroot
`([swbz#27389](https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27389)). *
CVE-2021-27645: Use-after-free in `addgetnetgrentX` function in
`netgroupcache.c` (RHBZ#1932590) * `ldconfig` crash with dynamic tokens in
`LD_LIBRARY_PATH` (RHBZ#1609351) * An LTP test failure for
`pthread_cond_destroy` ([swbz#27304](
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27304))
