CVE-2018-13033
Last modified
CVE-2018-13033 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.30, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (excessive memory allocation and application crash) via a crafted ELF file, as demonstrated by _bfd_elf_parse_attributes in elf-attrs.c and bfd_malloc in libbfd.c. This can occur during execution of nm.. EPSS estimates a 3.09% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
