Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2005:261 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Low: glibc security update 2005-04-28 04:00:00 UTC

Description Josh Bressers 2004-11-19 16:20:07 UTC 
On September 10th 2004, Trustix shared some temporary file
vulnerabilities with vendor-sec.  After some refinement these were
made public on Sep30.  These are minor issues (impact: LOW) and
therefore should be fixed in future updates, but don't deserve their
own security advisory.

Temporary file vulnerability in catchsegv.

Patch attached as attachment 105440 [details].
Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2004-11-24 09:06:58 UTC 
catchsegv.sh fixed in cvs.dist glibc/RHEL-2_1/ CVS, glibcbug script removed
at the same place.  The remaining two patched files are bogus.

Is this enough to fix in U7 or do we need a security errata earlier?
Comment 2 Jakub Jelinek 2005-02-15 13:58:49 UTC 
Should be fixed in glibc-2.2.4-32.19 in dist-2.1AS-errata-candidate.
