     in stabs.c (bsc#1193929).
   - CVE-2021-46195: Fixed uncontrolled recursion in
     libiberty/rust-demangle.c (bsc#1194783).
   - CVE-2022-27943: Fixed stack exhaustion in demangle_const in
     (bsc#1197592).

   - CVE-2022-38533: Fixed heap out-of-bounds read in bfd_getl32
     (bsc#1202816).


   The following non-security bugs were fixed:

   - SLE toolchain update of binutils, update to 2.39 from 2.37.
   - Update to 2.39:
     * The ELF linker will now generate a warning message if the stack is
       made executable.  Similarly it will warn if the output binary contains
       a segment with all three of the read, write and execute permission
       bits set.  These warnings are intended to help developers identify
       programs which might be vulnerable to attack via these executable
       memory regions. The warnings are enabled by default but can be
       disabled via a command line option.  It is also possible to build a
       linker with the warnings disabled, should that be necessary.
     * The ELF linker now supports a --package-metadata option that allows
       embedding a JSON payload in accordance to the Package Metadata
       specification.
     * In linker scripts it is now possible to use TYPE=<type> in an output
       section description to set the section type value.
     * The objdump program now supports coloured/colored syntax highlighting
       of its disassembler output for some architectures. (Currently: AVR,
       RiscV, s390, x86, x86_64).
     * The nm program now supports a --no-weak/-W option to make it ignore
       weak symbols.
     * The readelf and objdump programs now support a -wE option to prevent
       them from attempting to access debuginfod servers when following links.
     * The objcopy program's --weaken, --weaken-symbol, and
       --weaken-symbols options now works with unique symbols as well.

   - Update to 2.38:
     * elfedit: Add --output-abiversion option to update ABIVERSION.
     * Add support for the LoongArch instruction set.
     * Tools which display symbols or strings (readelf, strings, nm, objdump)
       have a new command line option which controls how unicode characters
       are handled.  By default they are treated as normal for the tool.
       Using
       --unicode=locale will display them according to the current locale.
        Using --unicode=hex will display them as hex byte values, whilst
       --unicode=escape will display them as escape sequences.  In addition
        using --unicode=highlight will display them as unicode escape
        sequences highlighted in red (if supported by the output device).
     * readelf -r dumps RELR relative relocations now.
     * Support for efi-app-aarch64, efi-rtdrv-aarch64 and efi-bsdrv-aarch64
       has been added to objcopy in order to enable UEFI development using
       binutils (bsc#1198458).
     * ar: Add --thin for creating thin archives. -T is a deprecated alias
       without diagnostics. In many ar implementations -T has a different
       meaning, as specified by X/Open System Interface.
     * Add support for AArch64 system registers that were missing in previous
       releases.
     * Add support for the LoongArch instruction set.
     * Add a command-line option, -muse-unaligned-vector-move, for x86 target
       to encode aligned vector move as unaligned vector move.
     * Add support for Cortex-R52+ for Arm.
     * Add support for Cortex-A510, Cortex-A710, Cortex-X2 for AArch64.
     * Add support for Cortex-A710 for Arm.
     * Add support for Scalable Matrix Extension (SME) for AArch64.
     * The --multibyte-handling=[allow|warn|warn-sym-only] option tells the
       assembler what to when it encoutners multibyte characters in the
       input.  The default is to allow them.  Setting the option to "warn"
       will generate a warning message whenever any multibyte character is
       encountered.  Using the
       option to "warn-sym-only" will make the assembler generate a warning
        whenever a symbol is defined containing multibyte characters.
        (References to undefined symbols will not generate warnings).
     * Outputs of .ds.x directive and .tfloat directive with hex input from
       x86 assembler have been reduced from 12 bytes to 10 bytes to match the
       output of .tfloat directive.
     * Add support for 'armv8.8-a', 'armv9-a', 'armv9.1-a', 'armv9.2-a' and
       'armv9.3-a' for -march in AArch64 GAS.
     * Add support for 'armv8.7-a', 'armv8.8-a', 'armv9-a', 'armv9.1-a',
       'armv9.2-a' and 'armv9.3-a' for -march in Arm GAS.
     * Add support for Intel AVX512_FP16 instructions.
     * Add -z pack-relative-relocs/-z no pack-relative-relocs to x86 ELF
       linker to pack relative relocations in the DT_RELR section.
     * Add support for the LoongArch architecture.
     * Add -z indirect-extern-access/-z noindirect-extern-access to x86 ELF
       linker to control canonical function pointers and copy relocation.
     * Add --max-cache-size=SIZE to set the the maximum cache size to SIZE
       bytes.

   - Fixed regression that prevented .ko.debug to be loaded in crash tool
     (bsc#1191908).
   - Explicitly enable --enable-warn-execstack=yes and
     --enable-warn-rwx-segments=yes.
   - Add gprofng subpackage.
   - Include recognition of 'z16' name for 'arch14' on s390. (bsc#1198237).
   - Add back fix for bsc#1191473, which got lost in the update to 2.38.
   - Install symlinks for all target specific tools on arm-eabi-none
     (bsc#1185712).
   - Enable PRU architecture for AM335x CPU (Beagle Bone Black board)
