Descriptions

The __libelf_set_rawdata_wrlock function in elf_getdata.c in elfutils before 0.168 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted (1) sh_off or (2) sh_size ELF header value, which triggers a memory allocation failure.

La función __libelf_set_rawdata_wrlock en elf_getdata.c en elfutils en versiones anteriores a 0.168 permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) a través de un valor de cabecera ELF (1) sh_off o (2) sh_size manipulado, lo que desencadena un fallo de asignación de memoria.
