allowed attackers to cause a denial of service or other unspecified
impact (bsc#1112535)

in the function sec_merge_hash_lookup causing a denial of service
(bsc#1113255)
– CVE-2018-18606: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference in
_bfd_add_merge_section when attempting to merge sections with large
alignments, causing denial of service (bsc#1113252)
– CVE-2018-18607: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference in elf_link_input_bfd
when used for finding STT_TLS symbols without any TLS section, causing
denial of service (bsc#1113247)
– CVE-2018-19931: Fixed a heap-based buffer overflow in
bfd_elf32_swap_phdr_in in elfcode.h (bsc#1118831)

buffer overflow in load_specific_debug_section in objdump.c
(bsc#1121056)
– CVE-2018-1000876: Fixed integer overflow in
bfd_get_dynamic_reloc_upper_bound,bfd_canonicalize_dynamic_reloc in
objdump (bsc#1120640)
– CVE-2019-1010180: Fixed an out of bound memory access that could lead to
crashes (bsc#1142772)

– enable xtensa architecture (Tensilica lc6 and related)
– Use -ffat-lto-objects in order to provide assembly for static libs
(bsc#1141913).
– Fixed some LTO build issues (bsc#1133131 bsc#1133232).
– riscv: Don’t check ABI flags if no code section
– Fixed a segfault in ld when building some versions of pacemaker
(bsc#1154025, bsc#1154016).
– Add avr, epiphany and rx to target_list so that the common binutils can
handle all objects we can create with crosses (bsc#1152590).

Update to binutils 2.32:

* The binutils now support for the C-SKY processor series.
* The x86 assembler now supports a -mvexwig=[0|1] option to control
encoding of VEX.W-ignored (WIG) VEX instructions. It also has a new
-mx86-used-note=[yes|no] option to generate (or not) x86 GNU property
notes.
* The MIPS assembler now supports the Loongson EXTensions R2 (EXT2), the
Loongson EXTensions (EXT) instructions, the Loongson Content Address
Memory (CAM) ASE and the Loongson MultiMedia extensions Instructions
(MMI) ASE.
* The addr2line, c++filt, nm and objdump tools now have a default limit on
the maximum amount of recursion that is allowed whilst demangling
strings. This limit can be disabled if necessary.
* Objdump’s –disassemble option can now take a parameter, specifying the
starting symbol for disassembly. Disassembly will continue from this
symbol up to the next symbol or the end of the function.
* The BFD linker will now report property change in linker map file when
merging GNU properties.
* The BFD linker’s -t option now doesn’t report members within archives,
unless -t is given twice. This makes it more useful when generating a
list of files that should be packaged for a linker bug report.
* The GOLD linker has improved warning messages for relocations that refer
to discarded sections.

– Improve relro support on s390 [fate#326356]
– Fix broken debug symbols (bsc#1118644)
– Handle ELF compressed header alignment correctly.
