||
Binutils, elfutils: Buffer overflow Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200506-01 (Binutils, elfutils: Buffer overflow) Tavis Ormandy and Ned Ludd of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team discovered an integer overflow in the BFD library and elfutils, resulting in a heap based buffer overflow. Impact Successful exploitation would require a user to access a specially crafted binary file, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time. Solution: All GNU Binutils users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose sys-devel/binutils All elfutils users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/elfutils-0.108" Network Security Threat Level: Medium Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: (C) 2005 Michel Arboi |
