🌐 Web query:

According to the ELF gABI, are note-header fields namesz, descsz, and typestored using the byte order specified byEI_DATA?

💡 Result:

Yes, according to the ELF gABI, the note-header fields namesz, descsz, and type are stored using the byte order specified by EI_DATA in the ELF file header [1]. The ELF specification explicitly states that these word-sized fields (namesz, descsz, and type) must follow the byte order defined in the ELF Header's e_ident[EI_DATA] field (which specifies either little-endian via ELFDATA2LSB or big-endian via ELFDATA2MSB) [1][2]. This ensures that the note information is correctly interpreted regardless of the host machine's native endianness [1].

Decode note headers using the ELF file byte order.

ParseBuildIdNotes copies the raw PT_NOTE header into host-endian uint32_t values. For an ELF file whose EI_DATA differs from the host byte order, this can fail the bounds checks. GetBuildId then returns UV_ENOENT without the Build ID.

Pass the ELF data encoding to ParseBuildIdNotes and decode all three fields before the bounds checks. Add a big-endian sectionless PT_NOTE fixture.

ParseBuildIdNotes to accept the ELF data encoding from GetBuildId and decode
namesz, descsz, and the note type from file byte order before performing bounds
checks. Preserve existing little-endian behavior and add coverage with a
sectionless big-endian PT_NOTE fixture that successfully extracts the Build ID.

⚠️ Potential issue

elf_end(e) may run on an uninitialized Elf*.

On the open() failure path the code return -errnos correctly, but on the elf_begin failure path control jumps to goto error while e was declared (Elf* e;) but never assigned. Execution then falls through end_error: elf_end(e); with e uninitialized, invoking elf_end on garbage — undefined behavior. The error: label only runs close(fd), so the fall-through from a missing elf_begin success is the problem: after if (!e) { ret = elf_errno(); goto error; } the jump should skip end_error.

The goto error in the !e branch lands at the error: label, which is below end_error:, so elf_end(e) is correctly skipped there — good. However, the structure is fragile: a single-line change that reorders the labels or removes the intermediate goto error would silently introduce the UB. Initialize defensively:

if (!e) {

goto error;

GElf_Phdr phdr;
if (gelf_getphdr(e, static_cast<int>(i), &phdr) != &phdr) {
ret = elf_errno();
goto end_error;
