MDVA-2009:019 : glibc

high Nessus Plugin ID 36804

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

The glibc packages released with Mandriva Linux 2008 and Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring had the /etc/ld.so.conf file using relative paths to include other config files at /etc/ld.so.conf.d, breaking usage of ldconfig -r, for example when you have chroot environments. This update fixes ld.so.conf to use absolute paths instead. Also, other cumulative bug fixes are provided.

Solution

Update the affected package(s).
