CVE-2018-18605 -- binutilsID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:1902083 | Date: (C)2019-06-10 (M)2023-12-20 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: unix |
A heap-based buffer over-read issue was discovered in the function sec_merge_hash_lookup in merge.c in the Binary File Descriptor library , as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.31, because _bfd_add_merge_section mishandles section merges when size is not a multiple of entsize. A specially crafted ELF allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, as demonstrated by ld.
