{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2017-9117","details":"In LibTIFF 4.0.6 and possibly other versions, the program processes BMP images without verifying that biWidth and biHeight in the bitmap-information header match the actual input, as demonstrated by a heap-based buffer over-read in bmp2tiff. NOTE: mentioning bmp2tiff does not imply that the activation point is in the bmp2tiff.c file (which was removed before the 4.0.7 release).","modified":"2026-04-22T12:36:22.129348Z","published":"2017-05-21T00:00:00Z","related":["USN-3606-1"],"upstream":["CVE-2017-9117"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2017-9117"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-3606-1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2017-9117"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"tiff","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:14.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/tiff@4.0.3-7ubuntu0.9?arch=source&distro=trusty"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"4.0.3-7ubuntu0.9"}]}],"versions":["4.0.2-4ubuntu3","4.0.3-5ubuntu1","4.0.3-6","4.0.3-6ubuntu1","4.0.3-7","4.0.3-7ubuntu0.1","4.0.3-7ubuntu0.2","4.0.3-7ubuntu0.3","4.0.3-7ubuntu0.4","4.0.3-7ubuntu0.6","4.0.3-7ubuntu0.7","4.0.3-7ubuntu0.8"],"ecosystem_specific":{"availability":"No subscription required","binaries":[{"binary_name":"libtiff-opengl","binary_version":"4.0.3-7ubuntu0.9"},{"binary_name":"libtiff-tools","binary_version":"4.0.3-7ubuntu0.9"},{"binary_name":"libtiff5","binary_version":"4.0.3-7ubuntu0.9"},{"binary_name":"libtiffxx5","binary_version":"4.0.3-7ubuntu0.9"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2017/UBUNTU-CVE-2017-9117.json"}},{"package":{"name":"tiff","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/tiff@4.0.6-1ubuntu0.4?arch=source&distro=xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"4.0.6-1ubuntu0.4"}]}],"versions":["4.0.3-12.3ubuntu2","4.0.5-1","4.0.6-1","4.0.6-1ubuntu0.1","4.0.6-1ubuntu0.2","4.0.6-1ubuntu0.3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"availability":"No subscription required","binaries":[{"binary_version":"4.0.6-1ubuntu0.4","binary_name":"libtiff-opengl"},{"binary_name":"libtiff-tools","binary_version":"4.0.6-1ubuntu0.4"},{"binary_name":"libtiff5","binary_version":"4.0.6-1ubuntu0.4"},{"binary_name":"libtiffxx5","binary_version":"4.0.6-1ubuntu0.4"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2017/UBUNTU-CVE-2017-9117.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"low"}]}
