Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Buffer Overflow through the manipulation of the z/x argument.

Note: The project maintainers do not consider this a vulnerability, based on the following clause in the project's security policy: "Since most elfutils tools are run in short-lived, local, interactive, development context rather than remotely 'in production', we generally treat malfunctions as ordinary bugs rather than security vulnerabilities."
