Libelfin v0.3 was discovered to contain an integer overflow in the load function at elf/mmap_loader.cc. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted elf file.
The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.
