DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, has been found in GNU Binutils 2.45. Affected by this issue is the function bfd_elf_set_group_contents of the file bfd/elf.c. The manipulation leads to out-of-bounds write. It is possible to launch the attack on the local host. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The name of the patch is 41461010eb7c79fee7a9d5f6209accdaac66cc6b. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds write in GNU Binutils 2.45's bfd_elf_set_group_contents allows local attackers with low privileges to corrupt memory, potentially causing denial of service or arbitrary code execution. The exploit is publicly available, but EPSS indicates a very low probability of widespread exploitation, and the CVSS 4.0 base score is 1.9. The vulnerability is triggered when processing a malicious ELF file with crafted group sections using an affected tool like objdump or readelf.
