{"id":"CVE-2017-11613","url":"https://www.cyber-defence.io/tools/cve/CVE-2017-11613","generatedAt":"2026-10-28T22:41:41.180Z","title":"In LibTIFF 4.0.8, there is a denial of service vulnerability in the TIFFOpen function.","description":"In LibTIFF 4.0.8, there is a denial of service vulnerability in the TIFFOpen function. A crafted input will lead to a denial of service attack. During the TIFFOpen process, td_imagelength is not checked. The value of td_imagelength can be directly controlled by an input file. In the ChopUpSingleUncompressedStrip function, the _TIFFCheckMalloc function is called based on td_imagelength. If we set the value of td_imagelength close to the amount of system memory, it will hang the system or trigger the OOM killer.","published":"2017-07-26T08:29:00.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T01:02:05.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"cve@mitre.org","cvss":{"version":"3.0","score":6.5,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-20"],"affected":["libtiff/libtiff"],"epss":{"score":0.02735,"percentile":0.86037,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.73%).
