1. Summary:
An update for glibc is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.7
Extended Update Support.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Moderate. 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 ComputeNode EUS (v. 7.7) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode Optional EUS (v. 7.7) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server EUS (v. 7.7) - ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional EUS (v. 7.7) - ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, 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: stack corruption from crafted input in cosl, sinl, sincosl, and
tanl functions (CVE-2020-10029)
* glibc: stack-based buffer overflow if the input to any of the printf
family of functions is an 80-bit long double with a non-canonical bit
pattern (CVE-2020-29573)
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.
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/):
1810670 - CVE-2020-10029 glibc: stack corruption from crafted input in cosl, sinl, sincosl, and tanl functions
1905213 - CVE-2020-29573 glibc: stack-based buffer overflow if the input to any of the printf family of functions is an 80-bit long double with a non-canonical bit pattern
