A flaw was found in Binutils. The field the_bfd of asymbolstruct is uninitialized in the bfd_mach_o_get_synthetic_symtab function, which may lead to an application crash and local denial of service.
The code uses a variable that has not been initialized, leading to unpredictable or unintended results.
