Who You Gonna Call?

Nobody… Arch Linux has the latest glibc release (2.20) so is not affected by the GHOST bug, which was fixed upstream in glibc-2.18 (without realising the security implications).

For those that want to know more about security issues and updates in Arch Linux, check out the arch-security mailing list.

Wait, there is security bug in glibc? and Arch system is not affected because of rolling release … nothing news.
