CVE-2016-6131 1 Gnu 1 Libiberty 2017-02-09 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The demangler in GNU Libiberty allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop, stack overflow, and crash) via a cycle in the references of remembered mangled types.
CVE-2016-2856 3 Canonical, Debian, Gnu 3 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Glibc 2016-11-28 7.2 HIGH 8.4 HIGH
pt_chown in the glibc package before 2.19-18+deb8u4 on Debian jessie; the elibc package before 2.15-0ubuntu10.14 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and before 2.19-0ubuntu6.8 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS; and the glibc package before 2.21-0ubuntu4.2 on Ubuntu 15.10 and before 2.23-0ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and 16.10 lacks a namespace check associated with file-descriptor passing, which allows local users to capture keystrokes and spoof data, and possibly gain privileges, via pts read and write operations, related to debian/sysdeps/linux.mk. NOTE: this is not considered a vulnerability in the upstream GNU C Library because the upstream documentation has a clear security recommendation against the --enable-pt_chown option.
