It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-8310 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Videolan Vlc Media Player. 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-2017-8310/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8310/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-8310","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8310/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-8310","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-8310","GHSA-2ggh-fcw2-8mvr","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-8310"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VLC media player","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can read memory or crash VLC via crafted subtitle files due to a heap out-of-bound read vulnerability.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"checkpoint","cpe":[{"product":"vlc_media_player","vendor":"videolan"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"Heap out-of-bound read in CreateHtmlSubtitle in VideoLAN VLC 2.2.x due to missing check of string termination allows attackers to read data beyond allocated memory and potentially crash the process (causing a denial of service) via a crafted subtitles file.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Information disclosure in VLC","id":"CVE-2017-8310","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"videolan:vlc_media_player","products":["videolan:vlc_media_player"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in VLC","id":"CVE-2017-8311"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8309"},"products":["VLC"],"published":"2017-05-23","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0296","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-01-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-47359","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-12874","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10699","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-30"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1868","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-07-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-0023","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-10-30"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-1775","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-03-19"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["VideoLAN"]},"summary":"Attackers can read memory or crash VLC via crafted subtitle files due to a heap out-of-bound read vulnerability.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8310/"}
