It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-6278 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NVIDIA Tegra. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6278/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6278/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-6278","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6278/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-6278","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wv83-5224-q73f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NVIDIA Tegra kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A buffer overflow in the NVIDIA Tegra kernel's thermal driver allows attackers to cause denial of service or escalate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"nvidia","cpe":[{"product":"jetson_tk1_firmware","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"jetson_tx1_firmware","vendor":"nvidia"},{"product":"tegra_k1_firmware","vendor":"nvidia"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"NVIDIA Tegra kernel contains a vulnerability in the CORE DVFS Thermal driver where there is the potential to read or write a buffer using an index or pointer that references a memory location after the end of the buffer, which may lead to a denial of service or possible escalation of privileges.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in NVIDIA Tegra","id":"CVE-2017-6278","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Android","id":"CVE-2017-6279"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in GPU Display Driver","id":"CVE-2017-6277"},"products":["NVIDIA Tegra"],"published":"2018-03-26","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-17","vendors":["Nvidia Corporation"]},"summary":"A buffer overflow in the NVIDIA Tegra kernel's thermal driver allows attackers to cause denial of service or escalate privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6278/"}
