Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: N/A)

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to loop with an unreachable exit condition in ElfHeader.deriveGnuHashDynamicSymbolCount() when parsing a crafted ELF binary during import. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a crafted ELF file to cause a denial of service.

The issue becomes unrecoverable because cancellation is disabled during parsing, and it affects both GUI and headless analysis.
