Fixed In Version: glibc-2.17-157.el7_3.1 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, the nss_db module did not properly handle a protocol mismatchduring lookups in the service database. As a consequence, lookups in the servicedatabase could enter an infinite loop. Now, nss_db deals with protocolmismatches and proceeds with the next entry. As a result, service entries arefound as expected without entering an infinite loop
