What were you trying to do that didn't work?

Due to the inability to specify the size of a buffer when passing to it, the RTLD_DI_ORIGIN request of dlinfo can experience a buffer overflow.

Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

glibc-2.34-100.el9_4.2.x86_64

How reproducible:

Behavior is consistently reproducible.

Steps to reproduce

N/A (See upstream bug listing linked below)

Expected results

Buffer Overflow does not occur as size can be specified.

Actual results

Buffer Overflow occurs due to not being able to specify a size.

Additional

An upstream glibc bug has already been filed for this behavior.
