A weakness has been identified in GNU Binutils 2.47. This issue affects the function bfd_elf_set_group_contents of the file bfd/elf.c of the component SHT_GROUP Section Handler. Executing a manipulation can lead to null pointer dereference. The attack needs to be launched locally. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The project was informed of the problem early through a bug report but has not responded yet.
Why it matters
- ▸ Requires local access, limiting mass exploitation
- ▸ Low attack complexity — no special conditions needed to exploit
- ▸ Requires low-privilege access first
- ▸ No user interaction needed — can be exploited automatically
Apply the vendor patch as soon as it's available or already released. Review and restrict accounts with the privilege level this vulnerability requires.
