Description Todd Cullum 2026-08-18 23:35:48 UTC
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

There's a flaw in binutils 2.46.1 in rsrc_print_name() and rsrc_parse_entries() functions by which an attacker with local access or whom does not have local access but social engineers a victim to run binutils on a crafted PE file, can execute malicious code.

Comment 1 Patrick Monnerat 2026-08-20 16:43:54 UTC
Fedora does not use PE format.
