**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** elfutils version 0.189 **Description** The issue is related to a NULL pointer dereference via the `handle verdef()` function at `readelf.c` in the elfutils utility for modifying and analyzing ELF binary files. This can potentially lead to a buffer overflow in memory. Exploitation of the issue may allow an attacker to cause a denial of service. **Recommendations** For elfutils version 0.189, consider disabling the `handle verdef()` function as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the `readelf.c` component to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
