Description

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

 - Passing an effectively empty string to the `,ccs=` syntax extension of the mode argument in the `fopen`
 function in the GNU C Library version 2.45 or earlier may result in a heap buffer overflow when the mode
 string input to the function is attacker controlled. This usage pattern is not seen in applications in
 common GNU/Linux distributions and applications that process user-supplied values for `ccs` should not
 pass them through without validation. (CVE-2026-18374)

Solution

Update the glibc-2.44 library and its related packages to version 2.44-r6 or later.
