Описание
Calling getnetbyaddr or getnetbyaddr_r with a configured nsswitch.conf that specifies the library's DNS backend for networks and queries for a zero-valued network in the GNU C Library version 2.0 to version 2.42 can leak stack contents to the configured DNS resolver.
A flaw was found in glibc, the GNU C Library. When an application calls the getnetbyaddr or getnetbyaddr_r functions to resolve a network address, and the system's nsswitch.conf file is configured to use a DNS (Domain Name System) backend for network lookups, a query for a zero-valued network can lead to the disclosure of stack memory contents. This information is leaked to the configured DNS resolver, potentially allowing an attacker who controls the resolver to gain sensitive data from the affected system.
Отчет
This vulnerability is rated Moderate for Red Hat products. It allows for information disclosure of stack contents to a configured DNS resolver when an application utilizes getnetbyaddr or getnetbyaddr_r with a DNS backend specified in nsswitch.conf for a zero-valued network query. This affects Red Hat Enterprise Linux and OpenShift Container Platform.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
