According to the RHEL bug[1] for CVE-2015-8538 :

  "There is a out of bound read in  latest release version
  dwarf-20151114, and we have tested the other version dwarf-20140805,
  so we guess the versions which are between these two version will be
  affected too."

I just tested the version in squeeze (20100214-1) and it is indeed not
affected by this CVE, and does not segfault with the provided test case.
