binutils: fix CVE-2025-69649, and CVE-2025-69652

CVE-2025-69649:
  Null pointer dereference in readelf before 2.46 results in segfault when
  processing a crafted ELF binary with malformed header fields.
  No evidence of memory corruption beyond the null pointer dereference, nor
  any possibility of code execution, was observed.

CVE-2025-69652:
  Null pointer dereference in readelf when processing a crafted ELF binary
  with malformed DWARF abbrev or debug information which leads to SIGABORT.
  No evidence of memory corruption or code execution was observed; the impact
  is limited to denial of service.

Subject: [PATCH] PR 33697, fuzzer segfault
PR 33697
* readelf.c (process_relocs): Don't segfault on no sections.
CVE: CVE-2025-69649
Upstream-Status: Backport [https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=66a3492ce68e1ae45b2489bd9a815c39ea5d7f66]
Note:
The difference between this patch on v2.42 and upstream v2.46 is due to
the loop body printing the relocations in-line, which then in commit
8e8d0b63ff15896cc2c228c01f18dfcf2a4a9305 have been factored out to a
separate 'display_relocations()' function.
See: [https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blobdiff;f=binutils/readelf.c;h=fa0de3a7e0d9c2acc18fe047a7019e09f1ce3894;hp=c1006480b7bc3e83dd87fb20d215342375614af9;hb=8e8d0b63ff15896cc2c228c01f18dfcf2a4a9305;hpb=31c21e2c13d85793b525f74aa911eb28700ed89c]
