CVE-2021-3326
CVSS v2.0
7.8
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) versions 2.32 and earlier
Description
The iconv function in the GNU C Library, when processing invalid input sequences in the ISO-2022-JP-3 encoding, fails an assertion in the code path and aborts the program, potentially resulting in a denial of service.
Recommendations
For GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) versions 2.32 and earlier, consider updating to a newer version to mitigate the risk of denial of service. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the iconv function when processing input sequences in the ISO-2022-JP-3 encoding until a patch is available.
Fix
