DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2017-06-12 CVE-2014-9984 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in GNU Glibc
nscd in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before version 2.20 does not correctly compute the size of an internal buffer when processing netgroup requests, possibly leading to an nscd daemon crash or code execution as the user running nscd.
