Feb 25, 2016Impact to Big-IP of CVE-2015-8777
Anyone know what the impact is for the following problem:-
CVE-2015-8777: The process_envvars function in elf/rtld.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allows local users to bypass a pointer-guarding protection mechanism via a zero value of the LD_POINTER_GUARD environment variable.
And is there is a patch or remediation solution in the pipeline.
Best, Steve
