            Bug ID: 33968
           Summary: elf_update (elf, ELF_C_NULL) might crash for Elf files
                    opened with ELF_C_READ_MMAP
           Product: elfutils
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libelf
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: mark at klomp dot org
                CC: elfutils-devel at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

While testing bug #33967 found that elf_update (elf, ELF_C_NULL) might crash
when updating the Ehdr fields (like e_shoff). This can be replicated with the
same testcase as in bug #33967 by using ELF_C_READ_MMAP instead of
ELF_C_READ_MMAP_PRIVATE.

This shouldn't crash, it should either fail because the underlying Elf is
read-only or we need to make a copy of the Ehdr before updating it.
