NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mingw64-glib2-static package and not the mingw64-glib2-static package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue was discovered in GNOME GLib before 2.66.7 and 2.67.x before 2.67.4. If g_byte_array_new_take() was called with a buffer of 4GB or more on a 64-bit platform, the length would be truncated modulo 2**32, causing unintended length truncation.
