Subject: [glibc] time: Avoid memcmp overread in tzset (bug 31931)
Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2024 06:52:40 +0000 (GMT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240627065240.4E9853875DEF@sourceware.org> (raw)

https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=glibc.git;h=21738846a19eb4a36981efd37d9ee7cb6d687494

commit 21738846a19eb4a36981efd37d9ee7cb6d687494
Author: Florian Weimer <fweimer@redhat.com>
Date:   Wed Jun 26 19:36:58 2024 +0200

    time: Avoid memcmp overread in tzset (bug 31931)
    
    The test does not necessarily trigger the crash, depending on memcmp
    behavior.  A crash was observed in __memcmp_ia32 on i686 builds.
