Fedora 41 glibc Security Advisory 2024-846e191001: critical getrandom issue

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.

This update addresses a security vulnerability in the getrandom and arc4random implementation (CVE-2024-12455) on POWER systems (pcpc64le). Other architectures are not affected.
