Summary
Updated glibc packages fix a security vulnerability
Details

The updated packages fix a security vulnerability:

A buffer overflow was discovered in the GNU C Library's dynamic loader ld.so while processing the GLIBCTUNABLES environment variable. This issue could allow a local attacker to use maliciously crafted GLIBCTUNABLES environment variables when launching binaries with SUID permission to execute code with elevated privileges. (CVE-2023-4911)
