Descriptions

The SUSE coreutils-i18n.patch for GNU coreutils allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and crash) via a long string to the join command, when using the -i switch, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow in the alloca function.

SUSE coreutils-i18n.patch para GNU permite a atacantes dependientes del contexto provocar una denegación de servicio (caída y fallo de segmentación) a través de una cadena larga hacia el comando join, cuando se usa el switch -i, lo que desencadena en un desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila en la función alloca.
