The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd) has an aout_link_add_symbols function in bfd/aoutx.h that has an off-by-one vulnerability because it does not carefully check the string offset. The vulnerability could lead to a GNU linker (ld) program crash. Upstream bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20924
