Descriptions

The score_opcodes function in opcodes/score7-dis.c in GNU Binutils 2.28 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.

La función score_opcodes en opcodes/score7-dis.c en GNU Binutils 2.28 permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (desbordamiento de búfer y cierre inesperado de la aplicación) o, probablemente, causen otros impactos no especificados mediante un archivo binario modificado, como se ha demostrado por la gestión incorrecta de este archivo durante la ejecución de \"objdump -D\".

GNU binutils suffers from a print_insn_score16 buffer overflow vulnerability.
