Topic
An update for gdisk is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Description
The gdisk packages provide the gdisk partitioning utility for GUID Partition Table (GPT) disks.

Security Fix(es):
- gdisk: possible out-of-bounds-write in LoadPartitionTable of gpt.cc (CVE-2020-0256)
- gdisk: possible out-of-bounds-write in ReadLogicalParts of basicmbr.cc (CVE-2021-0308)
