According to the versions of the binutils packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The dump_relocs_in_section function in objdump.c in GNU     Binutils 2.29.1 does not check for reloc count integer     overflows, which allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (excessive memory allocation, or     heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PE     file.(CVE-2017-17122)

Fixed some LTO build issues (bsc#1133131 bsc#1133232).

riscv: Don't check ABI flags if no code section

Fixed a segfault in ld when building some versions of pacemaker (bsc#1154025, bsc#1154016).

Add avr, epiphany and rx to target_list so that the common binutils can handle all objects we can create with crosses (bsc#1152590).

Update to binutils 2.32: The binutils now support for the C-SKY processor series.

The x86 assembler now supports a -mvexwig=[0|1] option to control encoding of VEX.W-ignored (WIG) VEX instructions. It also has a new

-mx86-used-note=[yes|no] option to generate (or not) x86 GNU property notes.

The BFD linker will now report property change in linker map file when merging GNU properties.

The BFD linker's -t option now doesn't report members within archives, unless -t is given twice. This makes it more useful when generating a list of files that should be packaged for a linker bug report.

The GOLD linker has improved warning messages for relocations that refer to discarded sections.

According to the versions of the binutils packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor     (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU     Binutils 2.31. An invalid memory access exists in
    _bfd_stab_section_find_nearest_line in syms.c.
    Attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a     denial of service (application crash) via a crafted ELF     file.(CVE-2018-17358)

  - An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor     (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU     Binutils 2.31. a heap-based buffer over-read in     bfd_getl32 in libbfd.c allows an attacker to cause a     denial of service through a crafted PE file. This     vulnerability can be triggered by the executable     objdump.(CVE-2018-17360)

  - An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor     (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU     Binutils 2.31. a heap-based buffer over-read in     bfd_getl32 in libbfd.c allows an attacker to cause a     denial of service through a crafted PE file. This     vulnerability can be triggered by the executable     objdump.(CVE-2018-20623)

  - A NULL pointer dereference was discovered in     elf_link_add_object_symbols in elflink.c in the Binary     File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as     distributed in GNU Binutils 2.31.1. This occurs for a     crafted ET_DYN with no program headers. A specially     crafted ELF file allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service, as demonstrated by     ld.(CVE-2018-20651)
