Upstream information
Description
Integer overflow in the check_section function in dwarf_begin_elf.c in the libdw library, as used in elfutils 0.153 and possibly through 0.158 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a malformed compressed debug section in an ELF file, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.SUSE information

Note from the SUSE Security Team on the elfutils package
SUSE considers elfutils a developer tool which does not receive untrusted input. Code processed by elfutils is being executed in any normal scenario, so security exploits could just inject regular binary code. For this reason we update elfutils ocassionaly to the current stable version to catch up on features and bugfixes. If you are processing untrusted binary code with elfutils we recommend doing so on a seperate system or VM. SUSE Bugzilla entry: 872785 [RESOLVED / FIXED]SUSE Security Advisories:
