Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-1010204)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to the improper processing of Executable Linkable Format (ELF) files with invalid "e_shoff" header fields in the "gold/fileread.cc:497" and "elfcpp/elfcpp_file.h:644" files. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted ELF file, cause an out-of-bounds read condition and perform a denial of service attack on the target system.
