Synopsis
binutils bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated binutils packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The binutils packages are a collection of programming tools for the manipulation
of object code in various object file formats.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Due to instability in calculating the program header size, the GNU linker
could terminate unexpectedly with the "looping in map_segments" error message.
With this update, the linker has been modified to properly handle changes in the
size of the segment map, which prevents the instability and the linker no longer
crashes in this scenario. (BZ#818708)
All users of binutils are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
