How to fix?

Upgrade RHEL:7 glib2-doc to version 0:2.56.1-13.el7_9.1 or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2026:65773.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream glib2-doc package and not the glib2-doc package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in GLib. An out-of-bounds read of only 2 bytes can occur in the g_date_time_get_ymd function in the glib/gdatetime.c file when an invalid GDateTime object produced by the g_date_time_add_full function is processed. This flaw can corrupt the date output and potentially cause logic errors that may lead to a denial of service.
