- 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). (CVE-2017-9117)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
