This vulnerability causes programs that conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as objcopy, to crash." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21431", "refsource": "CONFIRM", "url": "https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21431" }, { "name": "GLSA-201709-02", "refsource": "GENTOO", "url": "https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/201709-02" } ] } }
