Issue date: 2021-11-10
CVE Names: CVE-2021-42574
=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update for gcc-toolset-11-gcc is now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 8.

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 AppStream (v. 8) - aarch64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64

3. Description:

The gcc packages provide compilers for C, C++, Java, Fortran, Objective C,
and Ada 95 GNU, as well as related support libraries.

Security Fix(es):

* Developer environment: Unicode's bidirectional (BiDi) override characters
can cause trojan source attacks (CVE-2021-42574)

The following changes were introduced in gcc in order to facilitate
detection of BiDi Unicode characters:

This update implements a new warning option -Wbidirectional to warn about
possibly dangerous bidirectional characters.

There are three levels of warning supported by gcc:
"-Wbidirectional=unpaired", which warns about improperly terminated BiDi
contexts. (This is the default.)
"-Wbidirectional=none", which turns the warning off.
"-Wbidirectional=any", which warns about any use of bidirectional
characters.

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.
