Summary

elfutils vulnerabilities

Details

It was discovered that readelf from elfutils could be made to read out of bounds. If a user or automated system were tricked into running readelf on a specially crafted file, an attacker could cause readelf to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-25260)

It was discovered that readelf from elfutils could be made to write out of bounds. If a user or automated system were tricked into running readelf on a specially crafted file, an attacker could cause readelf to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Ubuntu 24.10. (CVE-2025-1365)

It was discovered that readelf from elfutils could be made to dereference invalid memory. If a user or automated system were tricked into running readelf on a specially crafted file, an attacker could cause readelf to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Ubuntu 24.10. (CVE-2025-1371)

It was discovered that strip from elfutils could be made to dereference invalid memory. If a user or automated system were tricked into running strip on a specially crafted file, an attacker could cause strip to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-1377)
