CVE-2017-7304 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 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-2016-6131 1 Gnu 1 Libiberty 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The demangler in GNU Libiberty allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop, stack overflow, and crash) via a cycle in the references of remembered mangled types.
CVE-2016-5417 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
Memory leak in the __res_vinit function in the IPv6 name server management code in libresolv in GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.24 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by leveraging partial initialization of internal resolver data structures.
CVE-2017-9746 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The disassemble_bytes function in objdump.c in GNU Binutils 2.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted binary file, as demonstrated by mishandling of rae insns printing for this file during "objdump -D" execution.
CVE-2017-9778 1 Gnu 1 Gdb 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
GNU Debugger (GDB) 8.0 and earlier fails to detect a negative length field in a DWARF section. A malformed section in an ELF binary or a core file can cause GDB to repeatedly allocate memory until a process limit is reached. This can, for example, impede efforts to analyze malware with GDB.
CVE-2017-12959 1 Gnu 1 Pspp 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
There is a reachable assertion abort in the function dict_add_mrset() in data/dictionary.c of the libpspp library in GNU PSPP before 1.0.1 that will lead to a remote denial of service attack.
CVE-2017-12451 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The _bfd_xcoff_read_ar_hdr function in bfd/coff-rs6000.c and bfd/coff64-rs6000.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause an out of bounds stack read via a crafted COFF image file.
CVE-2017-17122 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The dump_relocs_in_section function in objdump.c in GNU Binutils 2.29.1 does not check for reloc count integer overflows, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (excessive memory allocation, or heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PE file.
CVE-2017-13710 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The setup_group function in elf.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a group section that is too small.
CVE-2017-7226 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 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-2017-9753 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The versados_mkobject function in bfd/versados.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted binary file, as demonstrated by mishandling of this file during "objdump -D" execution.
CVE-2017-10685 1 Gnu 1 Ncurses 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
In ncurses 6.0, there is a format string vulnerability in the fmt_entry function. A crafted input will lead to a remote arbitrary code execution attack.
CVE-2017-15939 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
dwarf2.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29, mishandles NULL files in a .debug_line file table, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted ELF file, related to concat_filename. NOTE: this issue is caused by an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-15023.
CVE-2017-15266 1 Gnu 1 Libextractor 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
In GNU Libextractor 1.4, there is a Divide-By-Zero in EXTRACTOR_wav_extract_method in wav_extractor.c via a zero sample rate.
CVE-2017-16831 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
coffgen.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, does not validate the symbol count, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and application crash, or excessive memory allocation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PE file.
CVE-2015-8985 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
The pop_fail_stack function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application crash) via vectors related to extended regular expression processing.
CVE-2015-8984 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
The fnmatch function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.22 might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed pattern, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
CVE-2017-16997 2 Gnu, Redhat 4 Glibc, Enterprise Linux Desktop, Enterprise Linux Server and 1 more 2025-04-20 9.3 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
elf/dl-load.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.19 through 2.26 mishandles RPATH and RUNPATH containing $ORIGIN for a privileged (setuid or AT_SECURE) program, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse library in the current working directory, related to the fillin_rpath and decompose_rpath functions. This is associated with misinterpretion of an empty RPATH/RUNPATH token as the "./" directory. NOTE: this configuration of RPATH/RUNPATH for a privileged program is apparently very uncommon; most likely, no such program is shipped with any common Linux distribution.
CVE-2017-9742 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The score_opcodes function in opcodes/score7-dis.c in GNU Binutils 2.28 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted binary file, as demonstrated by mishandling of this file during "objdump -D" execution.
CVE-2017-7300 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 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.
