-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2024-846e191001 2024-12-19 04:06:20.748341+00:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : glibc Product : Fedora 41 Version : 2.40 Release : 14.fc41 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/glibc/ Summary : The GNU libc libraries Description : The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a Linux system will not function. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update addresses a security vulnerability in the getrandom and arc4random implementation (CVE-2024-12455) on POWER systems (pcpc64le).
