CVE-2017-12448 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The bfd_cache_close function in bfd/cache.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a heap use after free and possibly achieve code execution via a crafted nested archive file. This issue occurs because incorrect functions are called during an attempt to release memory. The issue can be addressed by better input validation in the bfd_generic_archive_p function in bfd/archive.c.

CVE-2017-14333 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The process_version_sections function in readelf.c in GNU Binutils 2.29 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (Integer Overflow, and hang because of a time-consuming loop) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted binary file with invalid values of ent.vn_next, during "readelf -a" execution.
CVE-2017-9954 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM

CVE-2017-16826 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The coff_slurp_line_table function in coffcode.h in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PE file.
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-2017-7209 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The dump_section_as_bytes function in readelf in GNU Binutils 2.28 accesses a NULL pointer while reading section contents in a corrupt binary, leading to a program crash.
CVE-2017-16830 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The print_gnu_property_note function in readelf.c in GNU Binutils 2.29.1 does not have integer-overflow protection on 32-bit platforms, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation violation and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted ELF file.
CVE-2017-17123 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The coff_slurp_reloc_table function in coffcode.h in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted COFF based file.
CVE-2017-9752 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
bfd/vms-alpha.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed 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 in the _bfd_vms_get_value and _bfd_vms_slurp_etir functions during "objdump -D" execution.
CVE-2017-9043 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
readelf.c in GNU Binutils 2017-04-12 has a "shift exponent too large for type unsigned long" issue, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted ELF file.
CVE-2017-9747 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The ieee_archive_p function in bfd/ieee.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, might allow 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. NOTE: this may be related to a compiler bug.
CVE-2017-9038 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 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.

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-2017-17080 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
elf.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, does not validate sizes of core notes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bfd_getl32 heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted object file, related to elfcore_grok_netbsd_procinfo, elfcore_grok_openbsd_procinfo, and elfcore_grok_nto_status.
CVE-2017-8395 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 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-2017-12450 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The alpha_vms_object_p function in bfd/vms-alpha.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 heap write and possibly achieve code execution via a crafted vms alpha file.

readelf in GNU Binutils 2.28 has a use-after-free (specifically read-after-free) error while processing multiple, relocated sections in an MSP430 binary. This is caused by mishandling of an invalid symbol index, and mishandling of state across invocations.
CVE-2017-12452 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
