This was only recently assigned a CVE ID, but since the initial
discussion was from 2009, this is a CVE-2009-* ID.

There's an integer overflow in tzfile processing, please see
the Red Hat bugzilla for more descriptions and links to
the glibc upstream patches:

This bug has already been fixed in eglibc 2.13-24 for testing and 
unstable, and is already committed to the stable SVN branch (so for the
6.0.5) release. I have added the CVE number to the changelog for future
reference.
