Amazon Linux 2023 : compat-libpthread-nonshared, glibc, glibc-all-langpacks (ALAS2023-2026-1622)
high Nessus Plugin ID 311343
Synopsis
The remote Amazon Linux 2023 host is missing a security update.Description
It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-1622 advisory.The iconv() function in the GNU C Library versions 2.43 and earlier may crash due to an assertion failure when converting inputs from the IBM1390 or IBM1399 character sets, which may be used to remotely crash an application.
This vulnerability can be trivially mitigated by removing the IBM1390 and IBM1399 character sets from systems that do not need them. (CVE-2026-4046)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
Solution
Run 'dnf update glibc --releasever 2023.11.20260427' or or 'dnf update --advisory ALAS2023-2026-1622 --releasever 2023.11.20260427' to update your system.See Also
