+Buffer overflow in strfmon and strfmon_l right-justification padding
+
+Calling strfmon and strfmon_l in the GNU C Library version 2.38 to
+2.44 can write past the end of the caller-supplied output buffer
+when a conversion uses right-justified width padding.
+
+Exploitation requires an application code path that calls strfmon or
+strfmon_l with right-justified width padding into a destination buffer
+that is large enough for the padding to succeed but too small for the
+internal memmove call. The field width or format may be
+attacker-influenced or a fixed susceptible pattern in the caller.
+
+At the time of publication, no network-facing application impact is
+known.
