Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
GNU Binutils version 2.29.1
Description:
The issue is related to the
aout get external symbols function in the aoutx.h component of GNU Binutils, which is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in memory. This allows a remote attacker to access confidential data, compromise its integrity, and cause a denial of service using a specially crafted ELF file. The exploitation can lead to an invalid free and application crash.Recommendations:
For GNU Binutils version 2.29.1, consider restricting the use of the
aout get external symbols function until a patch is available to prevent potential exploitation. Additionally, avoid using specially crafted ELF files that could trigger the buffer overflow. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Exploit
