Last modified
CVE-2007-3508 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Integer overflow in the process_envvars function in elf/rtld.c in glibc before 2.5-rc4 might allow local users to execute arbitrary code via a large LD_HWCAP_MASK environment variable value. NOTE: the glibc maintainers state that they do not believe that this issue is exploitable for code execution. EPSS estimates a 0.45% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
