Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: mingw-glib2 security, bug fix, and enhancement update
Notes
Topic
An update for mingw-glib2 is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Details
GLib provides the core application building blocks for libraries and applications written in C. It provides the core object system used in GNOME, the main loop implementation, and a large set of utility functions for strings and common data structures.
The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: mingw-glib2 (2.66.7). (BZ#1935248, BZ#1939111)
Security Fix(es):
* glib: integer overflow in g_bytes_new function on 64-bit platforms due to an implicit cast from 64 bits to 32 bits (CVE-2021-27219)
* glib: integer overflow in g_byte_array_new_take function when called with a buffer of 4GB or more on a 64-bit platform (CVE-2021-27218)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

However, if the data in GBytes is taken through functions such as g_bytes_unref_to_data or g_bytes_unref_to_array it might be possible to have out-of-bounds writes due to the wrongly reported size of the buffer.\n\nApplications that use g_memdup to duplicate memory with user-controlled sizes should pay extra attention to the fact that g_memdup accepts a guint size instead of gsize. Thus directly passing a gsize value to g_memdup may results in integer truncation, allocating a buffer smaller than expected.", "title": "Statement" }, { "category": "general", "text": "The CVSS score(s) listed for this vulnerability do not reflect the associated product\u0027s status, and are included for informational purposes to better understand the severity of this vulnerability.", "title": "CVSS score applicability" } ], "product_status": { "fixed": [ "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.src", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-debuginfo-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-static-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-debuginfo-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-static-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch" ] }, "references": [ { "category": "self", "summary": "Canonical URL", "url": "https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-27219" }, { "category": "external", "summary": "RHBZ#1929858", "url": "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1929858" }, { "category": "external", "summary": "https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2021-27219", "url": "https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2021-27219" }, { "category": "external", "summary": "https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-27219", "url": "https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-27219" } ], "release_date": "2021-02-04T00:00:00+00:00", "remediations": [ { "category": "vendor_fix", "date": "2021-11-09T18:21:41+00:00", "details": "For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to:\n\nhttps://access.redhat.com/articles/11258", "product_ids": [ "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.src", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-debuginfo-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-static-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-debuginfo-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-static-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch" ], "restart_required": { "category": "none" }, "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2021:4526" } ], "scores": [ { "cvss_v3": { "attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 9.8, "baseSeverity": "CRITICAL", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.1" }, "products": [ "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.src", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-debuginfo-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw32-glib2-static-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-debuginfo-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch", "CRB-8.5.0.GA:mingw64-glib2-static-0:2.66.7-2.el8.noarch" ] } ], "threats": [ { "category": "impact", "details": "Important" } ], "title": "glib: integer overflow in g_bytes_new function on 64-bit platforms due to an implicit cast from 64 bits to 32 bits" } ] }
