Freshness: upstream tracker timestamp is available; use API updated time as primary recency signal.
CVE-2012-3509 low priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (binutils), 11 status rows across 11 suites (hardy, lucid, natty, oneiric, precise, quantal, raring, saucy, trusty, upstream, utopic): ignored 6, not-affected 2, released 2, needs-triage 1.
Multiple integer overflows in the (1) _objalloc_alloc function in objalloc.c and (2) objalloc_alloc macro in include/objalloc.h in GNU libiberty, as used by binutils 2.22, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to the "addition of CHUNK_HEADER_SIZE to the length," which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
