Ref: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-8392
====================================================
Description

The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU
Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to an invalid read of size 8 because of missing a
check to determine whether symbols are NULL in the
_bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line function. This vulnerability causes programs that
conduct an analysis of binary programs using the libbfd library, such as
objdump, to crash.
