A bug was discovered in the getgrouplist function in glibc that can cause a buffer overflow if the size of the group list is too small to hold all the user’s groups. This overflow can cause segementation faults in various user applications, some of which may lead to additional security problems. The problem can only be triggered if the user is in a larger number of groups than expected by an application.

The provided packages are patched to address this issue.
