Subject: [PATCH] PR22443, Global buffer overflow in
_bfd_elf_get_symbol_version_string
Symbols like *ABS* defined in bfd/section.c:global_syms are not
elf_symbol_type. They can appear on relocs and perhaps other places
in an ELF bfd, so a number of places in nm.c and objdump.c are wrong
to cast an asymbol based on the bfd being ELF. I think we lose
nothing by excluding all section symbols, not just the global_syms.
PR 22443
* nm.c (sort_symbols_by_size): Don't attempt to access
section symbol internal_elf_sym.
(print_symbol): Likewise. Don't call bfd_get_symbol_version_string
for section symbols.
* objdump.c (compare_symbols): Don't attempt to access
section symbol internal_elf_sym.
(objdump_print_symname): Don't call bfd_get_symbol_version_string
for section symbols.
Upstream-Status: Backport
Affects: <= 2.29.1
