From 7dd51aea98fbf282536ae4f78a86ae4b63e5a1dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Soumya Sambu Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 17:49:40 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] elfutils: Fix CVE-2025-1376 A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in GNU elfutils 0.192. This vulnerability affects the function elf_strptr in the library /libelf/elf_strptr.c of the component eu-strip. The manipulation leads to denial of service. It is possible to launch the attack on the local host. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitation appears to be difficult. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The name of the patch is b16f441cca0a4841050e3215a9f120a6d8aea918. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue.
