[Bug 2112018] [NEW] Merge klibc from Debian Unstable for questing

 

Public bug reported:

Scheduled-For: ubuntu-25.06
Ubuntu: 2.0.13-4ubuntu1
Debian Unstable: 2.0.14-1

A new release of klibc is available for merging from Debian Unstable.

If it turns out this needs a sync rather than a merge, please change the
tag 'dcr-merge' to 'dcr-sync', and (optionally) update the title as
desired.

If this merge pulls in a new upstream version, also consider adding an
entry to the questing Release Notes:
https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/questing-quokka-release-notes/

### New Debian Changes ###

klibc (2.0.14-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream version:
    - parisc: Fix build with Linux 6.10+ (Closes: #1075820)

### Old Ubuntu Delta ###

klibc (2.0.13-4ubuntu1) oracular; urgency=medium

  * SECURITY UPDATE: improper pointer arithmetic
    - debian/patches/CVE-2016-9840.patch: remove offset pointer optimization
      in usr/klibc/zlib/inftrees.c.
    - CVE-2016-9840
  * SECURITY UPDATE: improper pointer arithmetic
    - debian/patches/CVE-2016-9841.patch: remove offset pointer optimization
      in usr/klibc/zlib/inffast.c.
    - CVE-2016-9841
  * SECURITY UPDATE: memory corruption during compression
    - debian/patches/CVE-2018-25032.patch: addresses a bug that can crash
      deflate on rare inputs when using Z_FIXED.
    - CVE-2018-25032
  * SECURITY UPDATE: heap-based buffer over-read
    - debian/patches/CVE-2022-37434-1.patch: adds an extra condition to check
      if state->head->extra_max is greater than len before copying, and moves
      the len assignment to be placed before the check in
      usr/klibc/zlib/inflate.c.
    - debian/patches/CVE-2022-37434-2.patch: in the previous patch, the
      placement of the len assignment was causing issues so it was moved
      within the conditional check.
    - CVE-2022-37434
