2005-06-09  Roland McGrath  <roland@redhat.com>

        * readelf.c (handle_dynamic, handle_symtab): Check for bogus sh_link.
        (handle_verneed, handle_verdef, handle_versym, handle_hash): Likewise.
        (handle_scngrp): Check for bogus sh_info.

        * strip.c (handle_elf): Check for bogus values in sh_link, sh_info,
        st_shndx, e_shstrndx, and SHT_GROUP or SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX data.
        Don't use assert on input values, instead bail with "illformed" error.

2005-05-17  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

libelf/
        * elf32_getphdr.c (elfw2(LIBELFBITS,getphdr)): Check if program header
        table fits into object's bounds.
        * elf_getshstrndx.c (elf_getshstrndx): Add elf->start_offset to
        elf->map_address.  Check if first section header fits into object's
        bounds.
        * elf32_getshdr.c (elfw2(LIBELFBITS,getshdr)):
        Check if section header table fits into object's bounds.
        * elf_begin.c (get_shnum): Ensure section headers fits into
        object's bounds.
        (file_read_elf): Make sure scncnt is small enough to allocate both
        ElfXX_Shdr and Elf_Scn array.  Make sure section and program header
        tables fit into object's bounds.  Avoid memory leak on failure.

src/
        * elflint.c (check_hash): Don't check entries beyond end of section.
        (check_note): Don't crash if gelf_rawchunk fails.
        (section_name): Return <invalid> if gelf_getshdr returns NULL.

        * elflint.c (section_name): Return "<invalid>" instead of
        crashing on invalid section name.
        (check_symtab, is_rel_dyn, check_rela, check_rel, check_dynamic,
        check_symtab_shndx, check_hash, check_versym): Robustify.
