Category:	Amazon Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Amazon Linux: Security Advisory (ALAS-2013-270)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'glibc' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2013-270 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'glibc' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2013-270 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Multiple integer overflow flaws, leading to heap-based buffer overflows, were found in glibc's memory allocator functions (pvalloc, valloc, and memalign). If an application used such a function, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2013-4332) A flaw was found in the regular expression matching routines that process multibyte character input. If an application utilized the glibc regular expression matching mechanism, an attacker could provide specially-crafted input that, when processed, would cause the application to crash. (CVE-2013-0242) It was found that getaddrinfo() did not limit the amount of stack memory used during name resolution. An attacker able to make an application resolve an attacker-controlled hostname or IP address could possibly cause the application to exhaust all stack memory and crash. (CVE-2013-1914) Affected Software/OS: 'glibc' package(s) on Amazon Linux. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
