(dot dot) in a (1) LC_*, (2) LANG, or other locale environment variable. CVE-2014-5119 Off-by-one error in the __gconv_translit_find function in gconv_trans.c in GNU C Library (aka glibc) allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via vectors related to the CHARSET environment variable and gconv transliteration modules. CVE-2013-4458 Stack-based buffer overflow in the getaddrinfo function in sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c in GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.18 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a (1) hostname or (2) IP address that triggers a large number of AF_INET6 address results. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-1914. Impact This vulnerability may allow remote attackers to bypass restrictions and execute arbitrary code or cause a denial-of-service (DoS). Status F5 Product Development has assigned ID 476571 (ARX) to this vulnerability, and has evaluated the currently supported releases for potential vulnerability. To determine if your release is known to be vulnerable, the components or features that are affected by the vulnerability, and for information about releases or hotfixes that address the vulnerability, refer to the following table: Product Versions known Versions known to be Vulnerable component to be vulnerable not vulnerable or feature ARX 6.0.0 - 6.4.0 None Q Multiple* *Most ARX components are based on GNU C library code. Recommended action If the previous table lists a version in the Versions known to be not vulnerable column, you can eliminate this vulnerability by upgrading to the listed version. If the table does not list any version in the column, then no upgrade candidate currently exists.
