medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 463686

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Binutils objdump contains a denial-of-service vulnerability when processing a crafted binary with
 malformed DWARF debug_rnglists data. A logic error in the handling of the debug_rnglists header can cause
 objdump to repeatedly print the same warning message and fail to terminate, resulting in an unbounded
 logging loop until the process is interrupted. The issue was observed in binutils 2.44. A local attacker
 can exploit this vulnerability by supplying a malicious input file, leading to excessive CPU and I/O usage
 and preventing completion of the objdump analysis. (CVE-2025-69646)

Solution

Update the binutils library and its related packages to version 2.45.90.20260201+really2.45.50.20251201-1+e7 or later.
