nscd vulnerabilities

The Name Service Cache Daemon (nscd) has a memory corruption flaw that can occur when the NSS callback does not store all strings in the provided buffer. This issue was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd.

The Name Service Cache Daemon (nscd) may terminate due to a memory allocation failure, leading to denial of service for clients. This issue was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the cache was added to nscd.

In nscd, a stack-based buffer overflow may occur when the fixed size cache is exhausted by client requests. A subsequent client request for netgroup data can lead to this flaw.
