Subject: [USN-136-1] binutils vulnerability
===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-136-1 May 27, 2005
binutils vulnerability
CAN-2005-1704
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
The following packages are affected:
binutils
binutils-multiarch
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 2.14.90.0.7-8ubuntu0.2 (for Ubuntu 4.10), or 2.15-5ubuntu2.1
(for Ubuntu 5.04). In general, a standard system upgrade is
sufficient to effect the necessary changes.
Details follow:
Tavis Ormandy found an integer overflow in the Binary File Descriptor
(BFD) parser in the GNU debugger. The same vulnerable code is also
present in binutils. By tricking an user into processing a specially
crafted executable with the binutils tools (strings, objdump, nm,
readelf, etc.), an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary
code with the privileges of the user running the affected program.
Updated packages for Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog):
