CVEID: CVE-2014-8121
DESCRIPTION: GNU C Library (glibc) is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the failure to properly check if a file is open by DB_LOOKUP in nss_files/files-XXX.c in the Name Service Switch (NSS). By performing a look-up on a database while iterating over it, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the application to enter into an infinite loop.
