--- Comment #2 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> ---
The difficulty in doing anything about this class of bug is that objdump and
other binutils can't make a decision on what constitutes an unreasonable
section size. We tried testing against file size but that doesn't work. Some
formats encode section contents; For those you can easily have a section of
size greater than the total object file size.
So we have to trust that the operating system will behave gracefully if objdump
asks for a very large memory buffer.
