2018-02-02 CVE-2018-6551 Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in GNU Glibc 2.24/2.25/2.26
The malloc implementation in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6), from version 2.24 to 2.26 on powerpc, and only in version 2.26 on i386, did not properly handle malloc calls with arguments close to SIZE_MAX and could return a pointer to a heap region that is smaller than requested, eventually leading to heap corruption.

2018-02-01 CVE-2018-6485 Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in multiple products
An integer overflow in the implementation of the posix_memalign in memalign functions in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.26 and earlier could cause these functions to return a pointer to a heap area that is too small, potentially leading to heap corruption.

2018-01-31 CVE-2018-1000001 Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in multiple products
In glibc 2.26 and earlier there is confusion in the usage of getcwd() by realpath() which can be used to write before the destination buffer leading to a buffer underflow and potential code execution.

2018-01-26 CVE-2018-6323 Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in GNU Binutils 2.29.1
The elf_object_p function in elfcode.h in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, has an unsigned integer overflow because bfd_size_type multiplication is not used.

2018-01-04 CVE-2017-18018 Race Condition vulnerability in GNU Coreutils
In GNU Coreutils through 8.29, chown-core.c in chown and chgrp does not prevent replacement of a plain file with a symlink during use of the POSIX "-R -L" options, which allows local users to modify the ownership of arbitrary files by leveraging a race condition.
