NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libdw1-32bit package and not the libdw1-32bit package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

In elfutils 0.175, a heap-based buffer over-read was discovered in the function elf32_xlatetom in elf32_xlatetom.c in libelf. A crafted ELF input can cause a segmentation fault leading to denial of service (program crash) because ebl_core_note does not reject malformed core file notes.
