glibc upgrade error: gawk: error while loading shared libraries: /lib64/libm.so.6: invalid ELF header - glibc

Question

I am trying to path CVE-2015-7547 which base on glibc2.22, everything is good but getting make install error
My linux version: 2.6.32.43
Upgrade glibc-2.12 to glibc-2.22
glibc-2.22> mkdir build
glibc-2.22/build> cat config.log

make is done

The cause of this error seems to be the old libm-2.12. So changed it and the new not set property, which step went wrong?
Any suggestion is appreciated.

Answer 1

I ran into the same problem. I have my own Linux build and package management system, which is probably unusual. However, essentially my glibc package process is similar to building from source and then installing. I can build a new patched glibc at the same version number without any issues at all. The package system upgrade results in overwriting the original files without removing them first, since the package manifests are identical. All I need to do is restart init. I also reboot as well. My scenario for creating a new glibc package is specific to my situation though, so I won't go into details. This is how I handled CVE-2015-7547.
Updating glibc when the version number changes is more difficult. You should try installing with DESTDIR in the install targets, like this:
make DESTDIR=/tmp/stage install
There are more steps of course. Once you have glibc installed in a staging directory, you need to replace your current glibc files with the new ones properly. You need to do this without ripping out the old glibc files first. I was able to do this by hand for testing purposes by creating my own tar archive of the files in the staging directory. Exactly how to do this is beyond the scope of my answer right now, but I thought I would mention using DESTDIR like this. I am working on exact instructions for doing this on my system, but those would be specific to me in some respects. More information about DESTDIR can be found here.
