DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2017-05-02 CVE-2017-8421 Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime vulnerability in GNU Binutils 2.28
The function coff_set_alignment_hook in coffcode.h in Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, has a memory leak vulnerability which can cause memory exhaustion in objdump via a crafted PE file.

5.5
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.

2017-03-20 CVE-2015-8985 Data Processing Errors vulnerability in GNU Glibc 2.0.1
The pop_fail_stack function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application crash) via vectors related to extended regular expression processing.
network
high complexity
gnu CWE-19
5.9
2017-03-20 CVE-2015-8984 Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in GNU Glibc
The fnmatch function in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.22 might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed pattern, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
network
high complexity
gnu CWE-125
5.9
2017-03-17 CVE-2017-6966 Use After Free vulnerability in GNU Binutils 2.28
readelf in GNU Binutils 2.28 has a use-after-free (specifically read-after-free) error while processing multiple, relocated sections in an MSP430 binary.
local
low complexity
gnu CWE-416
5.5
2017-03-17 CVE-2017-6965 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in GNU Binutils 2.28
readelf in GNU Binutils 2.28 writes to illegal addresses while processing corrupt input files containing symbol-difference relocations, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
