Bug ID: 32645 Summary: ld SEGV (illegal read access) in yylex (ld/ldlex.l:488:26) -w -T options Product: binutils Version: 2.43 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: swj22 at mails dot tsinghua.edu.cn Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 15920 --> https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=15920&action=edit poc **Description** A segv can occur in ld (part of binutils 2.43) when using the -w -T options with a specially crafted input file. This issue leads to memory corruption (illegal memory read 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 -T/ / /tmp/poc AddressSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL ================================================================= ==488261==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x55a55b9fea18 (pc 0x559d5a8549b8 bp 0x7ffc2b06b790 sp 0x7ffc2b06b2d0 T0) ==488261==The signal is caused by a READ memory access. #0 0x559d5a8549b8 in yylex ./binutils-2.43/ld/ldlex.l:488:26 #1 0x559d5a8433fa in yyparse ./binutils-2.43/ld/ldgram.c:2520:16 #2 0x559d5a8758fe in load_symbols ./binutils-2.43/ld/ldlang.c:3051:7 #3 0x559d5a886304 in open_input_bfds ./binutils-2.43/ld/ldlang.c:3622:13 #4 0x559d5a8829f3 in lang_process ./binutils-2.43/ld/ldlang.c:8194:3 #5 0x559d5a8ad34c in main ./binutils-2.43/ld/./ldmain.c:529:3 #6 0x7f1610c3f082 in __libc_start_main /build/glibc-LcI20x/glibc-2.31/csu/../csu/libc-start.c:308:16 #7 0x559d5a7856bd in _start (./binutils-2.43/bins/bin/ld+0x15a6bd) (BuildId: d9731e405748db264b62c84ded760ba4f068cb0a) AddressSanitizer can not provide additional info.
