Description

CVE-2010-4755 refers to a resource exhaustion vulnerability in the BSD glob library.
This code is not part of the Illumos/Solaris glob library, but is part of a private library
used by the sftp client. Note that this is not a security issue because it's only on the
client side.

It has been corrected in BSD variants by enhancing the function of the GLOB_LIMIT
flag option.
