CVE-2018-13033 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
This was deemed not a vulnerability.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Resource Management Errors. The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.30, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (excessive memory allocation and application crash) via a crafted ELF file, as demonstrated by _bfd_elf_parse_attributes in elf-attrs.c and bfd_malloc in libbfd.c. This can occur during execution of nm.
