An update of the binutils package has been released.

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 GNU libiberty, as     distributed in GNU Binutils 2.32. It is a heap-based     buffer over-read in d_expression_1 in cp-demangle.c     after many recursive calls.(CVE-2019-9070)

  - An issue was discovered in GNU libiberty, as     distributed in GNU Binutils 2.32. It is a stack     consumption issue in d_count_templates_scopes in     cp-demangle.c after many recursive     calls.(CVE-2019-9071)

  - An issue was discovered in GNU libiberty, as     distributed in GNU Binutils 2.32.
    simple_object_elf_match in simple-object-elf.c does not     check for a zero shstrndx value, leading to an integer     overflow and resultant heap-based buffer     overflow.(CVE-2019-14250)

  - 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)

  - An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor     (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU     Binutils 2.32. It is an integer overflow leading to a     SEGV in _bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line in dwarf2.c, as     demonstrated by nm.(CVE-2019-17451)

  - An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor     (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU     Binutils 2.32. It is an attempted excessive memory     allocation in _bfd_elf_slurp_version_tables in     elf.c.(CVE-2019-9073)

  - 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)

  - remember_Ktype in cplus-dem.c in GNU libiberty, as     distributed in GNU Binutils 2.30, allows attackers to     trigger excessive memory consumption (aka OOM). This     can occur during execution of cxxfilt.(CVE-2018-12934)
