=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update for glibc is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Low. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client (v. 7) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client Optional (v. 7) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode (v. 7) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode Optional (v. 7) - x86_64

3. Description:

The glibc packages provide the standard C libraries (libc), POSIX thread
libraries (libpthread), standard math libraries (libm), and the name
service cache daemon (nscd) used by multiple programs on the system.
Without these libraries, the Linux system cannot function correctly.

Security Fix(es):

* glibc: LD_PREFER_MAP_32BIT_EXEC not ignored in setuid binaries
(CVE-2019-19126)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE
page(s) listed in the References section.

Additional Changes:

For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 7.9 Release Notes linked from the References section.

4. Solution:

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:

  https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

For the update to take effect, all services linked to the glibc library
must be restarted, or the system rebooted.

5. Bugs fixed (  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

1763325 - argp.h kills __attribute__, causing gcc 4.8.5 with -std=c++ results in compile / link errors for __gthrw_pthread_mutex_* functions
1772307 - glibc: Measured performance loss in lmbench for bcopy on Haswell processor
1774681 - CVE-2019-19126 glibc: LD_PREFER_MAP_32BIT_EXEC not ignored in setuid binaries
1775816 - glibc: Disable libio vtable validation for interposed pre-2.1 stdio handles [rhel-7]
1795573 - glibc: Remove problematic Obsoletes: from the spec file
1834816 - glibc: internal_end*ent in nss_compat may clobber errno, hiding ERANGE
