CVE-2017-7304

CVE-2017-7304 affects the GNU Binutils BFD library (libbfd) as distributed in Binutils 2.28. The vulnerability is an invalid read (size 8) caused by a missing check for an invalid sh_link in copy_special_section_fields before following it, which can crash Binutils utilities such as strip. The pro...

CVE-2017-7304

The Binary File Descriptor BFD library aka libbfd, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid read of size 8 because of missing a check in the copyspecialsectionfields function for an invalid shlink field before attempting to follow it. This vulnerability causes Binutils...

CVE-2017-7226

The peILFobjectp function in the Binary File Descriptor BFD library aka libbfd, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read of size 4049 because it uses the strlen function instead of strnlen, leading to program crashes in several utilities such as addr2lin...

Heap overflow

The peILFobjectp function in the Binary File Descriptor BFD library aka libbfd, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read of size 4049 because it uses the strlen function instead of strnlen, leading to program crashes in several utilities such as addr2lin...

CVE-2017-7226

CVE-2017-7226 concerns the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (GNU Binutils) as distributed in Binutils 2.28. The vulnerability arises in the pe_ILF_object_p function, where a heap-based buffer over-read of size 4049 can occur because strlen is used instead of strnlen. This can cause program cr...

Binutils: Multiple vulnerabilities

Background The GNU Binutils are a collection of tools to create, modify and analyse binary files. Many of the files use BFD, the Binary File Descriptor library, to do low-level manipulation. Description Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Binutils. Please review the CVE identifiers...
