CVE Details

Release Date:	2017-06-19
Impact:	Important	What is this?

Description

glibc contains a vulnerability that allows specially craftedLD_LIBRARY_PATH values to manipulate the heap/stack, causing them to alias, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution. Please note that additional hardening changes have been made to glibc to prevent manipulation of stack and heap memory but these issues are not directly exploitable, as such they have not been given a CVE. This affects glibc 2.25 and earlier.
