Descriptions

The posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen function in glibc before 2.20 does not copy its path argument in accordance with the POSIX specification, which allows context-dependent attackers to trigger use-after-free vulnerabilities.

La función posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen en glibc anterior a 2.20 no copia su argumento de ruta de acuerdo con la especificación POSIX, lo que permite a atacantes dependientes de contexto provocar vulnerabilidades de uso después de liberación.

Many Cisco devices such as Cisco RV340, Cisco RV340W, Cisco RV345, Cisco RV345P, Cisco RV260, Cisco RV260P, Cisco RV260W, Cisco 160, and Cisco 160W suffer from having hard-coded credentials, known GNU glibc, known BusyBox, and IoT Inspector identified vulnerabilities.
