2017-03-29 CVE-2017-7299 Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in GNU Binutils 2.28
The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, has an invalid read (of size 8) because the code to emit relocs (bfd_elf_final_link function in bfd/elflink.c) does not check the format of the input file before trying to read the ELF reloc section header.
