The Insights proxy Container is used by the Insights proxy product RPM and serves as an intermediary between cystomer systems in disconnected networks, air-gapped systems or systems with no outside connections and Insights. The Insights proxy routes all Red Hat Insights traffic through itself, providing a layer of privary and security for disconnected customer systems.

The glibc packages provide the standard C libraries (libc), POSIX thread libraries (libpthread), standard math libraries (libm), and the name service cache daemon (nscd) used by multiple programs on the system. Without these libraries, the Linux system cannot function correctly. Security Fix(es): * glibc: glibc: Denial of Service via iconv() function with specific character sets (CVE-2026-4046) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Red Hat has issued a security advisory for Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs, including multiple updated glibc packages for aarch64 and x86_64 architectures. The update addresses various bugs and enhancements related to glibc components. The advisory references CVE-2026-4046 and includes fixes for several CWEs such as CWE-617, CWE-120, CWE-131, CWE-125, and CWE-1284. No known exploits are reported in the wild. The severity is assessed as medium by the vendor.

The iconv() function in the GNU C Library versions 2.43 and earlier may crash due to an assertion failure when converting inputs from the IBM1390 or IBM1399 character sets, which may be used to remotely crash an application. This vulnerability can be trivially mitigated by removing the IBM1390 and IBM1399 character sets from systems that do not need them.
