Bug ID: 20237
Summary: getservent segfaults in the db NSS service module
without preceding setservent
Product: glibc
Version: 2.24
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: nss
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: fweimer at redhat dot com
Target Milestone: ---
Flags: security-
If getservent is called without a preceding setservent call, the implementation
in the âdbâ NSS service module segfaults.
This is a supported use case, the setservent is supposed to be implicit.
Apparently, this breaks some applications.
