Red Hat Security Advisory: mingw-glib2 security and bug fix update
Notes
Topic
An update for mingw-glib2 is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Low. 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.
Security Fix(es):
* glib: g_file_replace() with G_FILE_CREATE_REPLACE_DESTINATION creates empty target for dangling symlink (CVE-2021-28153)
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.
