CVE-2017-9753 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The versados_mkobject function in bfd/versados.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, does not initialize a certain data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted binary file, as demonstrated by mishandling of this file during "objdump -D" execution.
CVE-2017-5618 1 Gnu 1 Screen 2025-04-20 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
GNU screen before 4.5.1 allows local users to modify arbitrary files and consequently gain root privileges by leveraging improper checking of logfile permissions.
CVE-2017-13089 2 Debian, Gnu 2 Debian Linux, Wget 2025-04-20 9.3 HIGH 8.8 HIGH
The http.c:skip_short_body() function is called in some circumstances, such as when processing redirects. When the response is sent chunked in wget before 1.19.2, the chunk parser uses strtol() to read each chunk's length, but doesn't check that the chunk length is a non-negative number. The code then tries to skip the chunk in pieces of 512 bytes by using the MIN() macro, but ends up passing the negative chunk length to connect.c:fd_read(). As fd_read() takes an int argument, the high 32 bits of the chunk length are discarded, leaving fd_read() with a completely attacker controlled length argument.
CVE-2017-12454 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The _bfd_vms_slurp_egsd function in bfd/vms-alpha.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause an arbitrary memory read via a crafted vms alpha file.
CVE-2017-8395 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid write of size 8 because of missing a malloc() return-value check to see if memory had actually been allocated in the _bfd_generic_get_section_contents function. This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objcopy, to crash.
CVE-2017-17440 1 Gnu 1 Libextractor 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
GNU Libextractor 1.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted GIF, IT (Impulse Tracker), NSFE, S3M (Scream Tracker 3), SID, or XM (eXtended Module) file, as demonstrated by the EXTRACTOR_xm_extract_method function in plugins/xm_extractor.c.
CVE-2017-13734 1 Gnu 1 Ncurses 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
There is an illegal address access in the _nc_safe_strcat function in strings.c in ncurses 6.0 that will lead to a remote denial of service attack.
CVE-2017-17531 1 Gnu 1 Global 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 8.8 HIGH
gozilla.c in GNU GLOBAL 4.8.6 does not validate strings before launching the program specified by the BROWSER environment variable, which might allow remote attackers to conduct argument-injection attacks via a crafted URL.
CVE-2017-14729 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The *_get_synthetic_symtab functions in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29, do not ensure a unique PLT entry for a symbol, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted ELF file, related to elf32-i386.c and elf64-x86-64.c.
CVE-2017-16826 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The coff_slurp_line_table function in coffcode.h in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PE file.
CVE-2017-15996 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
elfcomm.c in readelf in GNU Binutils 2.29 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (excessive memory allocation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted ELF file that triggers a "buffer overflow on fuzzed archive header," related to an uninitialized variable, an improper conditional jump, and the get_archive_member_name, process_archive_index_and_symbols, and setup_archive functions.
CVE-2017-12959 1 Gnu 1 Pspp 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
There is a reachable assertion abort in the function dict_add_mrset() in data/dictionary.c of the libpspp library in GNU PSPP before 1.0.1 that will lead to a remote denial of service attack.
CVE-2017-16832 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
The pe_bfd_read_buildid function in peicode.h in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, does not validate size and offset values in the data dictionary, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation violation and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PE file.
CVE-2017-7224 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The find_nearest_line function in objdump in GNU Binutils 2.28 is vulnerable to an invalid write (of size 1) while disassembling a corrupt binary that contains an empty function name, leading to a program crash.
CVE-2015-1395 3 Canonical, Fedoraproject, Gnu 3 Ubuntu Linux, Fedora, Patch 2025-04-20 7.8 HIGH 7.5 HIGH
Directory traversal vulnerability in GNU patch versions which support Git-style patching before 2.7.3 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files with the permissions of the target user via a .. (dot dot) in a diff file name.
CVE-2017-17080 1 Gnu 1 Binutils 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
elf.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, does not validate sizes of core notes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bfd_getl32 heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted object file, related to elfcore_grok_netbsd_procinfo, elfcore_grok_openbsd_procinfo, and elfcore_grok_nto_status.

The _bfd_elf_parse_gnu_properties function in elf-properties.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29.1, does not prevent negative pointers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted ELF file.
CVE-2011-5320 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2025-04-20 2.1 LOW 6.2 MEDIUM
scanf and related functions in glibc before 2.15 allow local users to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a large string of 0s.
