Jesus Olmos Gonzalez discovered a buffer overflow in the Tektronix Hex

'strings' utility. By tricking an user or automated system into
processing a specially crafted file with 'strings' or a vulnerable
third-party application using the BFD library, this could be exploited
to crash the application, or possibly even execute arbitrary code with
the privileges of the user.");
