CVE-2015-1472 (GCVE-0-2015-1472)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2015-04-08 10:00 – Updated: 2024-08-06 04:47
VLAI
Summary
The ADDW macro in stdio-common/vfscanf.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.21 does not properly consider data-type size during memory allocation, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long line containing wide characters that are improperly handled in a wscanf call.
Severity
No CVSS data available.
