Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2021.0150
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0150)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'glibc' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0150 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'glibc' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0150 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Updated glibc packages fix security vulnerabilities:

The iconv function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.32 and
earlier, when processing invalid multi-byte input sequences in IBM1364,
IBM1371, IBM1388, IBM1390, and IBM1399 encodings, fails to advance the
input state, which could lead to an infinite loop in applications,
resulting in a denial of service (CVE-2020-27618).

The iconv function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.32 and
earlier, when processing invalid input sequences in the ISO-2022-JP-3
encoding, fails an assertion in the code path and aborts the program,
potentially resulting in a denial of service (CVE-2021-3326).

The nameserver caching daemon (nscd), when processing a request for netgroup
lookup, may crash due to a double-free, potentially resulting in degraded
service or Denial of Service on the local system (CVE-2021-27645).

Affected Software/OS:
'glibc' package(s) on Mageia 7.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
