Category:Fedora Local Security Checks
Title:Fedora: Security Advisory for glibc (FEDORA-2021-e14e86e40e)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'glibc'; package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2021-e14e86e40e advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'glibc'
package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2021-e14e86e40e advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
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.

Affected Software/OS:
'glibc' package(s) on Fedora 34.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
