Dmitrijs:
I don't see how this bug is related to any of the points mentioned in that
security notice.
On a closer look at the openSuse bug report comment #2 just mentions those
security fixes without directly claiming that they fix the bug itself. In
Comment #3 the bug was declared fixed,
Hasn't this been fixed across the board with the latest security update?
http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-1991-1/ that was pushed out across the
board.

I believe this is essentially the same as a bug report over at Novell:

Seems strlen is being called on NULL pointers. As the bug report at
Novell has been fixed

Disabling caching netgroups certainly doesn't fix the bug, but it works
around it well enough. The glibc in precise-proposed does this.

Bugs,
In 12.04, after I went to /etc/nscd.conf and changed
enable-cachenetgroupyes
to
enable-cachenetgroupno
and restarted nscd, I stopped seeing segfault messages in my syslog
file. Is this the solution? I honestly do not know, but it has
Our configuration is a NIS network with Linux PCs. As soon as I do rsh
to one of these PCs it triggers a netgroup request and that leads to a
segfault in nscd.
This is the stdout of nscd -d.

Faced a similar issue with the newest version of nscd. Users in
