CVE-ID: CVE-2017-9110
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in hufDecode function in ImfHuf.cpp. A remote attacker can perform denial of service (DoS) attack.
Update the affected package openexr.
Vulnerable software versionsSlackware Linux: 14.2
CPE2.3 External linksQ & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.

2) Out-of-bounds write
EUVDB-ID: #VU20315
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-9111
CWE-ID:
CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input in storeSSE function in ImfOptimizedPixelReading.h.
