Summary
Updated glibc packages fix security vulnerabilities
Details

Under certain conditions wscanf can allocate too little memory for the to-be-scanned arguments and overflow the allocated buffer (CVE-2015-1472).

The incorrect use of "_libcuse_alloca (newsize)" caused a different (and weaker) policy to be enforced which could allow a denial of service attack (CVE-2015-1473).
