gethostbyaddr and gethostbyaddr_r return invalid DNS hostnames

Calling gethostbyaddr or gethostbyaddr_r with a configured nsswitch.conf that specifies the library's DNS backend in the GNU C library version 2.34 to version 2.43 could result in an invalid DNS hostname being returned to the caller in violation of the DNS specification.

wordexp with WRDE_REUSE and WRDE_APPEND may return uninitialized memory

Calling wordexp with WRDE_REUSE in conjunction with WRDE_APPEND in the GNU C Library version 2.0 to version 2.42 may cause the interface to return uninitialized memory in the we_wordv member, which on subsequent calls to wordfree may abort the process.

getnetbyaddr and getnetbyaddr_r leak stack contents to DNS resovler

Calling getnetbyaddr or getnetbyaddr_r with a configured nsswitch.conf that specifies the library's DNS backend for networks and queries for a zero-valued network in the GNU C Library version 2.0 to version 2.42 can leak stack contents to the configured DNS resolver.

Integer overflow in memalign leads to heap corruption

Passing too large an alignment to the memalign suite of functions (memalign, posix_memalign, aligned_alloc, valloc, pvalloc) in the GNU C Library version 2.30 to 2.42 may result in an integer overflow, which could consequently result in a heap corruption.
