More fixes for memory access violations triggered by fuzzed binaries.
PR binutils/17512 * objdump.c (display_any_bfd): Avoid infinite loop closing and opening the same archive again and again. * archive64.c (bfd_elf64_archive_slurp_armap): Add range checks. * libbfd.c (safe_read_leb128): New function. * libbfd-in.h (safe_read_leb128): Add prototype. * libbfd.h: Regenerate. * elf-attrs.c (_bfd_elf_parse_attributes): Use safe_read_leb128. Check for an over-long subsection length. * elf.c (elf_parse_notes): Check that the namedata is long enough for the string comparison that is about to be performed. (elf_read_notes): Zero-terminate the note buffer.
