CVE-2022-23218 is a critical buffer overflow vulnerability in the deprecated svcunix_create function within the sunrpc module of the GNU C Library (glibc) through version 2.34, affecting products like Debian, GNU, and Oracle. With a CVSS score of 9.8, it presents a severe risk of denial of service and potential arbitrary code execution due to improper length validation of its path argument. While no active exploitation, public exploits, or significant community discussion have been observed, its high FAUCET Risk Score of 79/100 indicates a substantial inherent risk.

Apr 20, 2022glibc: Stack-based buffer overflow in svcunix_create via long pathnames
Jan 12, 2022The deprecated compatibility function svcunix_create in the sunrpc module of the GNU C Library (aka glibc) through 2.34 copies its path argument on the stack without validating its length which may result in a buffer overflow potentially resulting in a denial of service or (if an application is not built with a stack protector enabled) arbitrary code execution.
