Several vulnerabilities were discovered in dwarfutils, a tool and
library for reading/consuming and writing/producing DWARF debugging
information. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following issues:

CVE-2015-8538

    A specially crafted ELF file can cause a segmentation fault.

CVE-2015-8750

    A specially crafted ELF file can cause a NULL pointer
    dereference.

CVE-2016-5038

    Out-of-bounds read

CVE-2016-5039

    Out-of-bounds read

CVE-2016-5042

    A specially crafted DWARF section can cause an infinite loop,
    reading from increasing memory addresses until the application
    crashes.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version

We recommend that you upgrade your dwarfutils packages.
