Name        : glibc
Product     : Fedora 38
Version     : 2.37
Release     : 10.fc38
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:

Security fix for CVE-2023-4911, CVE-2023-4806, and CVE-2023-4527.
CVE-2023-4911: If a tunable of the form NAME=NAME=VAL is passed in the
environment of a setuid program and NAME is valid, it may result in a buffer
overflow, which could be exploited to achieve escalated privileges.  This flaw
was introduced in glibc 2.34.  CVE-2023-4806: When an NSS plugin only implements
the _gethostbyname2_r and _getcanonname_r callbacks, getaddrinfo could use
memory that was freed during buffer resizing, potentially causing a crash or
read or write to arbitrary memory.  CVE-2023-4527: If the system is configured
in no-aaaa mode via /etc/resolv.conf, getaddrinfo is called for the AF_UNSPEC
address family, and a DNS response is received over TCP that is larger than 2048
bytes, getaddrinfo may potentially disclose stack contents via the returned
address data, or crash.  ----  This update contains [changes to ELF destructor
ordering](https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30869), improving
compatibility with a certain VPN software product.
