Multiple security issues have been found in binutils, a toolbox for 
binary file manipulation. These vulnerabilities include multiple memory 
safety errors, buffer overflows, use-after-frees and other implementation 
errors

restrictions, path traversal attack or denial of service.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
