- Summary
- elfutils vulnerabilities

Agostino Sarubbo discovered that elfutils incorrectly handled certain malformed ELF files. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted ELF file, elfutils could be made to crash or consume resources, resulting in a denial of service.
