file versions prior to 4.12
Description
The issue is related to a stack-based buffer overflow in the ELF header parsing code, which can be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted ELF file. This can lead to a violation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. The exploitation of this issue can be done remotely.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 4.12, update to version 4.12 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to ELF files from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation.
