CVE-2017-9039 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
GNU Binutils 2.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted ELF file with many program headers, related to the get_program_headers function in readelf.c.
CVE-2017-9038 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
GNU Binutils 2.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted ELF file, related to the byte_get_little_endian function in elfcomm.c, the get_unwind_section_word function in readelf.c, and ARM unwind information that contains invalid word offsets.
CVE-2017-8421 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 7.1 HIGH 5.5 MEDIUM
The function coff_set_alignment_hook in coffcode.h in Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, has a memory leak vulnerability which can cause memory exhaustion in objdump via a crafted PE file. Additional validation in dump_relocs_in_section in objdump.c can resolve this.
CVE-2017-8398 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
dwarf.c in GNU Binutils 2.28 is vulnerable to an invalid read of size 1 during dumping of debug information from a corrupt binary. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs, such as objdump and readelf, to crash.
CVE-2017-8397 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid read of size 1 and an invalid write of size 1 during processing of a corrupt binary containing reloc(s) with negative addresses. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objdump, to crash.
CVE-2017-8396 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid read of size 1 because the existing reloc offset range tests didn't catch small negative offsets less than the size of the reloc field. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objdump, to crash.
CVE-2017-8395 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
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 _bfd_generic_get_section_contents function. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objcopy, to crash.
CVE-2017-8394 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
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 _bfd_elf_large_com_section. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objcopy, to crash.
CVE-2017-8393 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
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 SHT_REL/SHR_RELA sections are always named starting with a .rel/.rela prefix. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objcopy and strip, to crash.
CVE-2017-8392 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
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 to determine whether symbols are NULL in the _bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line function. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objdump, to crash.
CVE-2017-7614 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
elflink.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, has a "member access within null pointer" undefined behavior issue, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an "int main() {return 0;}" program.
CVE-2017-7304 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
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 copy_special_section_fields function) for an invalid sh_link field before attempting to follow it. This vulnerability causes Binutils utilities like strip to crash.
CVE-2017-7303 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid read (of size 4) because of missing a check (in the find_link function) for null headers before attempting to match them. This vulnerability causes Binutils utilities like strip to crash.
CVE-2017-7302 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, has a swap_std_reloc_out function in bfd/aoutx.h that is vulnerable to an invalid read (of size 4) because of missing checks for relocs that could not be recognised. This vulnerability causes Binutils utilities like strip to crash.
CVE-2017-7301 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, has an aout_link_add_symbols function in bfd/aoutx.h that has an off-by-one vulnerability because it does not carefully check the string offset. The vulnerability could lead to a GNU linker (ld) program crash.
CVE-2017-7300 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, has an aout_link_add_symbols function in bfd/aoutx.h that is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read (off-by-one) because of an incomplete check for invalid string offsets while loading symbols, leading to a GNU linker (ld) program crash.
CVE-2017-7299 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, has an invalid read (of size 8) because the code to emit relocs (bfd_elf_final_link function in bfd/elflink.c) does not check the format of the input file before trying to read the ELF reloc section header. The vulnerability leads to a GNU linker (ld) program crash.
CVE-2017-7227 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
GNU linker (ld) in GNU Binutils 2.28 is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow while processing a bogus input script, leading to a program crash. This relates to lack of '\0' termination of a name field in ldlex.l.
CVE-2017-7226 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 6.4 MEDIUM 9.1 CRITICAL
The pe_ILF_object_p 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 addr2line, size, and strings. It could lead to information disclosure as well.
CVE-2017-7225 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2026-06-17 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The find_nearest_line function in addr2line in GNU Binutils 2.28 does not handle the case where the main file name and the directory name are both empty, triggering a NULL pointer dereference and an invalid write, and leading to a program crash.
