    In a multiply-corrupted DWARF object libdwarf may try to dealloc(free) an allocation twice.Results are     unpredictable and various. This has been a possibility since we added code to prevent leaks when     generating 'unattached' Dwarf_Error records (where there is no Dwarf_Debug available at the point of     error).The problem was introduced in libdwarf-0.1.0 in 2021. (CVE-2024-2002)

    Libdwarf v0.9.1 was discovered to contain a heap use-after-free via the dw_empty_errlist_item function at     /libdwarf/dwarf_alloc.c. (CVE-2024-31745)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.
