"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - elfutils: elflint.c does not validate the number of sections and segments (CVE-2017-7613)

  - elfutils: an infinite loop was found in the function handle_symtab in readelf.c which causes denial of
    service (CVE-2021-33294)

  - The allocate_elf function in common.h in elfutils before 0.168 allows remote attackers to cause a denial
    of service (crash) via a crafted ELF file, which triggers a memory allocation failure. (CVE-2016-10254)

  - The __libelf_set_rawdata_wrlock function in elf_getdata.c in elfutils before 0.168 allows remote attackers
    to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted (1) sh_off or (2) sh_size ELF header value, which
    triggers a memory allocation failure. (CVE-2016-10255)

  - The handle_gnu_hash function in readelf.c in elfutils 0.168 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
    service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted ELF file. (CVE-2017-7607)

  - The ebl_object_note_type_name function in eblobjnotetypename.c in elfutils 0.168 allows remote attackers
    to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted ELF file.
    (CVE-2017-7608)

  - elf_compress.c in elfutils 0.168 does not validate the zlib compression factor, which allows remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted ELF file. (CVE-2017-7609)

  - The check_group function in elflint.c in elfutils 0.168 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
    service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted ELF file. (CVE-2017-7610)

  - The check_symtab_shndx function in elflint.c in elfutils 0.168 allows remote attackers to cause a denial
    of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted ELF file. (CVE-2017-7611)

  - The check_sysv_hash function in elflint.c in elfutils 0.168 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
    service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted ELF file. (CVE-2017-7612)

  - elfutils v0.189 was discovered to contain a NULL pointer dereference via the handle_verdef() function at
    readelf.c. (CVE-2024-25260)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package
is installed.");
