-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2015:029-1 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : binutils Date : March 30, 2015 Affected: Business Server 2.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in binutils: Multiple integer overflows in the (1) _objalloc_alloc function in objalloc.c and (2) objalloc_alloc 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 CHUNK_HEADER_SIZE to the length, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2012-3509). The srec_scan function in bfd/srec.c in libdbfd in GNU binutils before 2.25 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a small S-record (CVE-2014-8484). The setup_group function in bfd/elf.c in libbfd in GNU binutils 2.24 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted section group headers in an ELF file (CVE-2014-8485). The _bfd_XXi_swap_aouthdr_in function in bfd/peXXigen.c in GNU binutils 2.24 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) and possibly have other unspecified impact via a crafted NumberOfRvaAndSizes field in the AOUT header in a PE executable (CVE-2014-8501). Heap-based buffer overflow in the pe_print_edata function in bfd/peXXigen.c in GNU binutils 2.24 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly have other unspecified impact via a truncated export table in a PE file (CVE-2014-8502). Stack-based buffer overflow in the ihex_scan function in bfd/ihex.c in GNU binutils 2.24 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly have other unspecified impact via a crafted ihex file (CVE-2014-8503). Stack-based buffer overflow in the srec_scan function in bfd/srec.c in GNU binutils 2.24 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly have other unspecified impact via a crafted file (CVE-2014-8504). Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in GNU binutils 2.24 and earlier allow local users to delete arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) or full path name in an archive to (1) strip or (2) objcopy or create arbitrary files via (3) a .. (dot dot) or full path name in an archive to ar (CVE-2014-8737). The _bfd_slurp_extended_name_table function in bfd/archive.c in GNU binutils 2.24 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid write, segmentation fault, and crash) via a crafted extended name table in an archive (CVE-2014-8738). The updated packages provides a solution for these security issues. Update: Packages for Mandriva Business Server 2 are now being provided. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-3509 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8484 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8485 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8501 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8502 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8503 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8504 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8737 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8738 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 2/X86_64: dc026aaba26fcaff7238a08bb74e5e1e mbs2/x86_64/binutils-2.24-7.1.mbs2.x86_64.rpm a2ea284bf36db7b8af26db37c93a00a0 mbs2/x86_64/lib64binutils-devel-2.24-7.1.mbs2.x86_64.rpm aa10193862adefdea23ca40720acb3b9 mbs2/SRPMS/binutils-2.24-7.1.mbs2.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
