USN-3239-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the GNU C Library. Unfortunately, the fix for CVE-2016-3706 introduced a regression that in some circumstances prevented IPv6 addresses from resolving. This update reverts the change in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. We apologize for the error.

It was discovered that the GNU C Library incorrectly handled the strxfrm() function. An attacker could use this issue to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2015-8982)

It was discovered that an integer overflow existed in the
_IO_wstr_overflow() function of the GNU C Library. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2015-8983)

It was discovered that the fnmatch() function in the GNU C Library did not properly handle certain malformed patterns.
An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2015-8984)

Alexander Cherepanov discovered a stack-based buffer overflow in the glob implementation of the GNU C Library. An attacker could use this to specially craft a directory layout and cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-1234)

Michael Petlan discovered an unbounded stack allocation in the getaddrinfo() function of the GNU C Library. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-3706)

Aldy Hernandez discovered an unbounded stack allocation in the sunrpc implementation in the GNU C Library. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-4429)

Tim Ruehsen discovered that the getaddrinfo() implementation in the GNU C Library did not properly track memory allocations. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
(CVE-2016-5417)

Andreas Schwab discovered that the GNU C Library on ARM 32-bit platforms did not properly set up execution contexts.
An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2016-6323).

According to the versions of the glibc packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in the clntudp_call     function in sunrpc/clnt_udp.c in the GNU C Library (aka     glibc or libc6) allows remote servers to cause a denial     of service (crash) or possibly unspecified other impact     via a flood of crafted ICMP and UDP     packets.(CVE-2016-4429)

  - Integer overflow in the strxfrm function in the GNU C     Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.21 allows     context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of     service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via     a long string, which triggers a stack-based buffer     overflow.(CVE-2015-8982)

  - The posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen function in glibc     before 2.20 does not copy its path argument in     accordance with the POSIX specification, which allows     context-dependent attackers to trigger use-after-free     vulnerabilities.(CVE-2014-4043)
