Descriptions
The fnmatch function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.22 might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed pattern, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
La función fnmatch en GNU C Library (también conocida como glibc o libc6) en versiones anteriores a 2.22 podría permitir a atacantes dependientes del contexto provocar una denegación de servicio (caída de aplicación) a través de un patrón malformado, que desencadena una lectura fuera de límites.
