CVE-2017-8395

The Binary File Descriptor BFD library aka libbfd, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid write of size 8 because of missing a malloc return-value check to see if memory had actually been allocated in the bfdgenericgetsectioncontents function. This vulnerability causes...

CVE-2017-8393

The Binary File Descriptor BFD library aka libbfd, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to a global buffer over-read error because of an assumption made by code that runs for objcopy and strip, that SHTREL/SHRRELA sections are always named starting with a .rel/.rela prefix. This...

CVE-2017-8394

The Binary File Descriptor BFD library aka libbfd, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid read of size 4 due to NULL pointer dereferencing of bfdelflargecomsection. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library,...

Null pointer dereference

The Binary File Descriptor BFD library aka libbfd, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid read of size 4 due to NULL pointer dereferencing of bfdelflargecomsection. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library,...

CVE-2017-8393

CVE-2017-8393 affects GNU Binutils’ Binary File Descriptor library (libbfd) as distributed in Binutils 2.28. The flaw stems from an assumption in code paths used by objcopy and strip that SHT_REL/SHR_RELA sections always begin with .rel/.rela, causing a global buffer over-read and a crash in tool...

CVE-2017-8395

CVE-2017-8395 affects the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (libbfd) included with GNU Binutils 2.28. The vulnerability arises from an unchecked malloc() return in _bfd_generic_get_section_contents, allowing an invalid write of size 8. This can cause crash-prone behavior in tools that analyze ...

Amazon Linux AMI : binutils (ALAS-2015-620)

A directory traversal flaw was found in the strip and objcopy utilities. A specially crafted file could cause strip or objdump to overwrite an arbitrary file writable by the user running either of these utilities. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way various binutils utilities processed...
