Hi, The following vulnerability was published for glibc. CVE-2016-10739[0]: | 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. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
