NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libelf-devel-32bit package and not the libelf-devel-32bit package as distributed by SLES.

The handle_gnu_hash function in readelf.c in elfutils 0.168 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted ELF file.
