Summary
=======

The package libdwarf before version 20161124-1 is vulnerable to
multiple issues including arbitrary code execution, information
disclosure and denial of service.

Resolution
==========

Upgrade to 20161124-1.

# pacman -Syu "libdwarf>=20161124-1"

The problems have been fixed upstream in version 20161124.

Workaround
==========

None.

Description
===========

- CVE-2016-5027 (denial of service)

A vulnerability was found in libdwarf. A malicious object with data
all-bits-on could bypass length checks which results in an out-of-
bounds read.

- CVE-2016-5028 (denial of service)

A null pointer dereference vulnerability was found in libdwarf. It
exists due to a corrupted object file. Libdwarf was not dealing with
empty (bss-like) sections since it really did not expect to see such in
sections it reads.

- CVE-2016-5029 (denial of service)

A null pointer dereference vulnerability was found in libdwarf in
create_fullest_file_path() function. This is due to corrupted dwarf and
the fix detects this corruption and if that null string pointer happens
undetected a static string is substituted so readers can notice the
situation.

- CVE-2016-5030 (denial of service)

A null pointer dereference vulnerability was found in libdwarf in
_dwarf_calculate_info_section_end_ptr() function.

- CVE-2016-5031 (information disclosure)

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in libdwarf in
print_frame_inst_bytes() function.

- CVE-2016-5032 (information disclosure)

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in libdwarf in
dwarf_get_xu_hash_entry() function.

- CVE-2016-5033 (information disclosure)

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in libdwarf in
print_exprloc_content.

- CVE-2016-5035 (information disclosure)

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in
dwarf_line_table_reader.c.

- CVE-2016-5037 (denial of service)

A null pointer dereference vulnerability was found in
_dwarf_load_section.

- CVE-2016-5040 (denial of service)

A vulnerability was found in libdwarf. If the data read for a
compilation unit header contains a too large length value the library
will read outside of its bounds and crash the application.

- CVE-2016-5041 (denial of service)

A vulnerability was found in libdwarf. If no DW_AT_name is present in a
debugging information entry using DWARF5 macros a null dereference in
dwarf_macro5.c will crash the application.

- CVE-2016-5043 (information disclosure)

A vulnerability was found in libdwarf. A function dwarf_dealloc() did
not check the Dwarf_Ptr space argument before using it which leads to
an out-of-bounds read.

- CVE-2016-5044 (arbitrary code execution)

A vulnerability was found in libdwarf in dwarf_elf_access.c:1071. A
crafted ELF file may lead to a large offset value, which bigger than the
size of target_section heap chunk, then this WRITE_UNALIGNED() function
will write the value of &outval out of the heap chunk. The offset is a
64bit unsigned int value, so this is more than a heap overflow bug, but
also a out-of-bound write bug.

- CVE-2016-7510 (information disclosure)

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in
read_line_table_program() in libdwarf.

- CVE-2016-7511 (denial of service)

An integer overflow vulnerability was found in dwarf_die_deliv.c causing
segmentation fault.

- CVE-2016-8679 (information disclosure)

An out of bounds heap read vulnerability was found in
_dwarf_get_size_of_val triggered by invoking dwarfdump command on
crafted file.

- CVE-2016-8680 (information disclosure)

An out of bounds heap read vulnerability was found in
_dwarf_get_abbrev_for_code triggered by invoking dwarfdump command on
crafted file.

- CVE-2016-8681 (information disclosure)

An out of bounds heap read vulnerability was found in
_dwarf_get_abbrev_for_code triggered by invoking dwarfdump command on
crafted file.

- CVE-2016-9275 (information disclosure)

An out of bounds heap read was found in _dwarf_skim_forms in
dwarf_macro5.c triggered by crafted input to dwarfdump utility.

- CVE-2016-9276 (information disclosure)

An out of bounds heap read was found in dwarf_get_aranges_list in
dwarf_arrange.c triggered by crafted input to dwarfdump utility.

- CVE-2016-9480 (information disclosure)

libdwarf allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive
information or cause a denial of service by using the "malformed dwarf
file" approach, related to a "Heap Buffer Over-read" issue affecting the
dwarf_util.c component.

- CVE-2016-9558 (denial of service)

A negation overflow vulnerability was found in dwarf_leb.c triggered by
crafted input to dwarfdump utility.

Impact
======

An attacker could obtain sensitive information, execute arbitrary code
or crash the application.
