poc
**Description**
A segv can occur in ld (part of binutils 2.43) when using the -w option with a
specially crafted input file. This issue leads to memory corruption (illegal
memory access)and crashes.
**Affected Version**
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.43
**Steps to Reproduce**
Build binutils 2.43 with AddressSanitizer (e.g., CFLAGS="-g -fsanitize=address"
./configure && make -j).
Run the following command:
./binutils-2.43/bins/bin/ld -w $poc
Observe the AddressSanitizer error indicating a segv.
$ ./binutils-2.43/bins/bin/ld -w /tmp/poc
./binutils-2.43/bins/bin/ld: warning: /tmp/poc has a section extending past end
of file
