  - binutils version 2.32 and earlier contains a Integer     Overflow vulnerability in objdump,     bfd_get_dynamic_reloc_upper_bound,bfd_canonicalize_dyna     mic_reloc that can result in Integer overflow trigger     heap overflow. Successful exploitation allows execution     of arbitrary code.. This attack appear to be     exploitable via Local. This vulnerability appears to     have been fixed in after commit     3a551c7a1b80fca579461774860574eabfd7f18f.(CVE-2018-1000     876)

  - The _bfd_generic_read_minisymbols function in syms.c in     the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd),     as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.31, has a memory leak     via a crafted ELF file, leading to a denial of service     (memory consumption), as demonstrated by     nm.(CVE-2018-20002)

  - GNU gdb All versions is affected by: Buffer Overflow -     Out of bound memory access. The impact is: Deny of     Service, Memory Disclosure, and Possible Code     Execution. The component is: The main gdb module. The     attack vector is: Open an ELF for debugging. The fixed     version is: Not fixed yet.(CVE-2019-1010180)

  - apply_relocations in readelf.c in GNU Binutils 2.32     contains an integer overflow that allows attackers to     trigger a write access violation (in     byte_put_little_endian function in elfcomm.c) via an     ELF file, as demonstrated by readelf.(CVE-2019-14444)

Fixed some LTO problems (bsc#1133131 bsc#1133232).

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

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 MIPS assembler now supports the Loongson EXTensions R2 (EXT2), the Loongson EXTensions (EXT) instructions, the Loongson Content Address Memory (CAM) ASE and the Loongson MultiMedia extensions Instructions (MMI) ASE.

The addr2line, c++filt, nm and objdump tools now have a default limit on the maximum amount of recursion that is allowed whilst demangling strings. This limit can be disabled if necessary.

Objdump's --disassemble option can now take a parameter, specifying the starting symbol for disassembly. Disassembly will continue from this symbol up to the next symbol or the end of the function.

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.

Improve relro support on s390 [fate#326356]

Handle ELF compressed header alignment correctly.
