This is a Denial of Service which we don't consider a security vulnerability.

jshin@: Do you mind if I assign this to you, as you are already handling  bug 697394 ? Thanks.

Labels: Security_Impact-Stable Security_Severity-Low
Re-reading the bug description, there is an out of bounds read here, so let's keep this as a security bug.

I'm not in the Chrome OS team. If you updated libtiff to 4.0.7 then this should already be fixed.

The libtiff under pdfium seems to be 4.0.7, but I'm not sure if this is the same as the one on ChromeOS.

jorgelo: Would you be able to double check? Thanks.

Yes Chrome OS is at libtiff 4.0.7. Sorry Nicolás for the noise. We should probably find out why Vomit is making our lives harder here.

i think VOMIT is doing the right thing.  the upstream CVE includes version info to match <=4.0.6:
https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2016-5322

if we look at our active branches:
ToT: tiff-4.0.7 since 19 Mar
R59: tiff-4.0.7 since branch point
R58: tiff-4.0.7 since 19 Mar
R57: tiff-4.0.3 and builds have been made as recent as 14 Apr

might be nice to get clarity as to the source of "Package Version" in comment #0 though.
