It was discovered that GNU binutils was not properly performing bounds
checks when processing debug sections with objdump, which could lead to
an overflow. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial
of service or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu
14.04 LTS. (CVE-2018-20671, CVE-2018-6543)

It was discovered that GNU binutils contained a reachable assertion, which
could lead to an intentional assertion failure when processing certain
crafted DWARF files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a
denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
(CVE-2022-35205)

It was discovered that GNU binutils incorrectly handled memory management
operations in several of its functions, which could lead to excessive
memory consumption due to memory leaks. An attacker could possibly use
these issues to cause a denial of service.
