CVE:CVE-2021-40648 vulnerable 2026-06-08 05:35:18.852676 Details available
In man2html 1.6g, a filename can be created to overwrite the previous size parameter of the next chunk and the fd, bk, fd_nextsize, bk_nextsize of the current chunk. The next chunk is then freed later on, causing a freeing of an arbitrary amount of memory.

CVE:CVE-2021-40647 vulnerable 2026-06-08 05:35:18.852185 Details available
In man2html 1.6g, a specific string being read in from a file will overwrite the size parameter in the top chunk of the heap. This at least causes the program to segmentation abort if the heap size parameter isn't aligned correctly. In version before GLIBC version 2.29 and aligned correctly, it allows arbitrary write anywhere in the programs memory.
