The GNU Compiler Collection is a portable compiler suite with support for various programming languages, including C, C++, and Fortran. The devtoolset-10-gcc packages provide the Red Hat Developer Toolset 10 version of GCC, as well as related libraries. Security Fix: * Developer environment: Unicode"s bidirectional override characters can cause trojan source attacks The following changes were introduced in binutils in order to facilitate detection of BiDi Unicode characters: This gcc update implements -Wbidirectional=[none|unpaired|any] to warn about possibly dangerous bidirectional characters. There are three levels of warning supported by GCC: and;-Wbidirectional=unpaired and;, which warns about improperly terminated bidi contexts. and;-Wbidirectional=none and;, turns the warning off. and;-Wbidirectional=any and; warns about any use of bidirectional characters. For more details about the security issue, including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page listed in the References section.
