Subject: [scarthgap][PATCH] binutils: fix CVE-2025-69649, and CVE-2025-69652
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 10:25:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260630082509.34865-1-roland.kovacs@est.tech> (raw)

CVE-2025-69649:
  Null pointer dereference in readelf before 2.46 results in segfault when
  processing a crafted ELF binary with malformed header fields.
  No evidence of memory corruption beyond the null pointer dereference, nor
  any possibility of code execution, was observed.

CVE-2025-69652:
  Null pointer dereference in readelf when processing a crafted ELF binary
  with malformed DWARF abbrev or debug information which leads to SIGABORT.
  No evidence of memory corruption or code execution was observed; the impact
  is limited to denial of service.
