Descriptions

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 (memory access violation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a COFF binary in which a relocation refers to a location after the end of the to-be-relocated section.

La biblioteca Binary File Descriptor (BFD), también conocida como libbfd, tal y como se distribuye en GNU Binutils 2.29.1, permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (acceso a la memoria no autorizado) o, posiblemente, causen otro tipo de impacto sin especificar mediante un binario COFF en el cual una reubicación se refiere a una ubicación tras el final de la sección que se va a reubicar.
