It was found that glob implementation in glibc does not correctly
handle overlong names in struct dirent buffers when GLOB_ALTDIRFUNC is
used, causing a large stack-based buffer overflow with controlled
length and content.
A stack (frame) overflow flaw, which could lead to a denial of service
(application crash), was found in the way glibc’s getaddrinfo()
function processed certain requests when called with AF_INET or
AF_INET6.
