GHSA-8r2c-r3r4-4hcp PUBLISHED CVSS 5.300000190734863 MEDIUM

Record from GitHub Advisory Database · Published May 14, 2022

In the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.28, the getaddrinfo function would successfully parse a string that contained an IPv4 address followed by whitespace and arbitrary characters, which could lead applications to incorrectly assume that it had parsed a valid string, without the possibility of embedded HTTP headers or other potentially dangerous substrings.
