PERTAIN_TOReport

CVE-2022-38126: Memory leak in binutils BFD read_abbrevs() — unlinked cur_abbrev->attrs not freed on bfd_realloc failure

PERTAIN_TOReport

CVE-2020-16592: Use-after-free in BFD merge.c during section merging

PERTAIN_TOReport

CVE-2020-16592: binutils libbfd UAF in section merging via hash table resize

PERTAIN_TOProblem

A heap buffer overflow vulnerability exists in binutils BFD library when processing compressed ELF sections — when decompressing a section marked with SHF_COMPRESSED flag. Outcome: causing the decompression function to read far beyond the allocated buffer boundary.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Two-part fix matching upstream binutils 2.35. Outcome: Alternatively, freeze the table (`table->frozen = 1`) during the entire section-merging phase so resizes never occur while external pointers are live.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

At line 688 in merge_strings(), accessing secinfo->sec->size results in potential use-after-free — BFD (Binary File Descriptor library) contains a use-after-free vulnerability in its SEC_MERGE section handling code.
