fedora
Calendar Grey January 17, 2021
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Stay updated on the latest developments in the Fedora distribution concerning glibc, highlighting fixes for buffer overflow vulnerabilities and CET enhancements that strengthen system security
- x86: Check IFUNC definition in unrelocated executable [BZ #20019] - x86: Set header.feature_1 in TCB for always-on CET [BZ #27177] - Update for [BZ #27130] fix - x86-64: A...

Summary

The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by

multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and

memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is

kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package

contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C

library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a

Linux system will not function.
