Descriptions

The assign_file_positions_for_non_load_sections function in elf.c in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.30, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via an ELF file with a RELRO segment that lacks a matching LOAD segment, as demonstrated by objcopy.

La función assign_file_positions_for_non_load_sections en elf.c en la biblioteca Binary File Descriptor (BFD), conocida como libbfd, tal y como se distribuye en GNU Binutils 2.30, permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (desreferencia de puntero NULL y cierre inesperado de la aplicación) mediante un archivo ELF con un segmento RELRO que carece de un segmento LOAD que coincida, tal y como demuestra objcopy.
