A buffer overflow was discovered in the GNU C Library’s dynamic loader
ld.so while processing the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variable. This issue
could allow a local attacker to use maliciously crafted GLIBC_TUNABLES
environment variables when launching binaries with SUID permission to
execute code with elevated privileges.

Notes

Author Note
Priority reason: Local privilege escalation in a package that is installed on all Ubuntu instances.
alexmurray Upstream advisory states this was introduced in April 2021 (glibc 2.34) by commit 2ed18c5b534d9e92fc006202a5af0df6b72e7aca
