Description Sergej Schumilo 2018-04-18 15:11:09 UTC
Dear all,
according to the bintutils maintainers the following memory corruption bugs are in the C++ name demangler (instead of the binutils application objdump), which is part of the libiberty library. 

This is the original binutils bug report (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23057):

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear all,
after reporting the following bugs to the Ubuntu security team (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/binutils/+bug/1763102), we were asked to report them directly to the binutils developers: 

----------------------------------------------------

Dear all,
The following binutils objdump memory corruptions were found by a modified version of the kAFL fuzzer (https://github.com/RUB-SysSec/kAFL). I have attached the crashing inputs and each ASAN report.

Steps to reproduce:

Build current verison of binutils:
```
pull-lp-source binutils
cd binutils-2.30
CC=clang CXX=clang++ CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address -fsanitize-recover=address -ggdb" CXXFLAGS="-fsanitize=address -fsanitize-recover=address -ggdb" LDFLAGS="-fsanitize=address" ./configure
CC=clang CXX=clang++ CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address -fsanitize-recover=address -ggdb" CXXFLAGS="-fsanitize=address
-fsanitize-recover=address -ggdb" LDFLAGS="-fsanitize=address" make
```

Run inputs under ASAN:

```
ASAN_OPTIONS=halt_on_error=false:allow_addr2line=true ./objdump --dwarf-check -C -g -f -dwarf -x $file
```

We can verify those issues for objdump binuitils-2.30-15ubuntu1 (Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS / sources from "pull-lp-source bintuils").
