Cause:
The DWARF debug information parser used by the readelf
program contained an assumption that the input was well
formed.
Consequence:
A specially crafted input file, containing corrupt
DWARF debug information could cause the readelf
program to perform an illegal memory access and
terminate.
Fix:
Add code to the DWARF parser to detect and report the
corrupt input.
Result:
Readelf no longer crashes when asked to parse the
corrupt input file.

On 2018-Nov-30 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '27'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 27 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Stale bug that does not affect any current releases, looks like the EOL closing script failed for some reason. |
