There is no fixed version for binutils.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use After Free in the add_archive_element process when handling object or archive files with LTO plugins enabled. An attacker can cause a crash of the linker process by introducing a specially crafted object or archive file into the build process. This is only exploitable if LTO plugin support is enabled and untrusted or externally-supplied object or archive files are processed during linking.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by avoiding LTO-enabled linking against untrusted or externally-supplied object and archive files, and by ensuring build environments only process trusted inputs.
