NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream glibc-langpack-hy package and not the glibc-langpack-hy package as distributed by Amazon-Linux.

On the x86-64 architecture, the GNU C Library (aka glibc) before 2.31 fails to ignore the LD_PREFER_MAP_32BIT_EXEC environment variable during program execution after a security transition, allowing local attackers to restrict the possible mapping addresses for loaded libraries and thus bypass ASLR for a setuid program.
