"The remote Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
RLSA-2021:4364 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU
    Binutils 2.35.1. A heap-based buffer over-read can occur in bfd_getl_signed_32 in libbfd.c because
    sh_entsize is not validated in _bfd_elf_slurp_secondary_reloc_section in elf.c. (CVE-2020-35448)

  - There is an open race window when writing output in the following utilities in GNU binutils version 2.35
    and earlier:ar, objcopy, strip, ranlib. When these utilities are run as a privileged user (presumably as
    part of a script updating binaries across different users), an unprivileged user can trick these utilities
    into getting ownership of arbitrary files through a symlink. (CVE-2021-20197)

  - A flaw was found in GNU Binutils 2.35.1, where there is a heap-based buffer overflow in
    _bfd_elf_slurp_secondary_reloc_section in elf.c due to the number of symbols not calculated correctly. The
    highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability. (CVE-2021-20284)

  - There's a flaw in the BFD library of binutils in versions before 2.36. An attacker who supplies a crafted
    file to an application linked with BFD, and using the DWARF functionality, could cause an impact to system
    availability by way of excessive memory consumption. (CVE-2021-3487)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
