- Details
-
Multiple integer overflows in the (1) objallocalloc function in objalloc.c and (2) objallocalloc macro in include/objalloc.h in GNU libiberty, as used by binutils 2.22, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to the "addition of CHUNKHEADER_SIZE to the length," which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
