how exactly are we to proceed with this ? the patch def looks good, but should is something going to contact vuln-sec or should i just post the patch to binutils mailing list (at which point keeping this bug closed is pointless) ?
The plan is like this: 1. Tigger/SpanKY/Solar please confirm 2. Taviso please mail vendor-sec 3. Arch security liaisons test 4. Coordinated disclosure
confirmed as stack overflow. as: stack smashing attack in function as_bad()
erm i dont think the binutils guys may be on the vendor sec list ? i could e-mail a handful of the big devs ...
Vapier please do. (2a. Contact upstream)
the binutils project does not wish to handle any offerflow/etc... issues in a private manner e-mailed the upstream dev list and it should be in shortly
Toolchain please provide an updated ebuild.
well there are plenty of other overflows/sanity check patches which have been added to binutils but i've opted to not add to our ebuild ... as upstream says, they'd rather not treat overflows in binutils as regular vulnerabilities, so issuing a GLSA for this seems a bit overdown ... also, they've accepted and committed the patch Taviso posted
Agreed, not GLSA worthy (you'ld have to trick someone into compiling your source code, it doesnt seem too much of a leap to get them to execute it afterwards). Do you think it's worth adding the patch to our package Spanky?
Rerating as B2.
not really ... if i do this one, then i should go through all the other BFD fixes that have been posted to the binutils mailing list in the last few months since the 1.16.1 release ...
Even if we did some GLSAs in the past that required heavy social engineering (read: dumb user) to work, I don't think we should continue on that trend. I propose to downgrade this to simple bug status. Security: please give your opinion.
I agree. Reassigning to toolchain, keeping security on cc.
should be all set now
