Created binutils tracking bugs for this issue: Affects: fedora-all [bug 2124579] Created mingw-binutils tracking bugs for this issue: Affects: fedora-all [bug 2124580] Upstream patch: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=ef186fe54aa6d281a3ff8a9528417e5cc614c797 Removing the Security flag because the problem is only triggered if the user is tricked into attempting to strip a corrupt COFF format file (a format not used by RHEL or Fedora), and all that happens is that the strip fails to complete. |
