Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- A stack-based buffer overflow in the dynamic loader (ld.so) of the GNU C Library (glibc) versions 2.14
through 2.44 allows a local attacker to crash or corrupt the memory of setuid/setgid (AT_SECURE) programs.
When such a program's DT_RPATH or DT_RUNPATH begins with $ORIGIN and is followed by NUL or '/' the loader
both reads past the end of the path buffer and writes past the end of a stack-allocated internal buffer.
The corrupted loader stack can lead to a loader crash (denial of service) and limited disclosure of
process memory. (CVE-2026-95818)

Solution

Update the glibc-2.44 library and its related packages to version 2.44-r8 or later.
