Last modified

CVE-2014-0475 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.20 allow context-dependent attackers to bypass ForceCommand restrictions and possibly have other unspecified impact via a .. (dot dot) in a (1) LC_*, (2) LANG, or other locale environment variable.. EPSS estimates a 2.69% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
