+ - If an HDF5 file contains a malformed compound datatype with a
+ suitably large offset, the type conversion code can run off
+ the end of the type conversion buffer, causing a segmentation
+ fault.
+
+ This issue was reported to The HDF Group as issue #CVE-2017-17507.
+
+ NOTE: The HDF5 C library cannot produce such a file. This condition
+ should only occur in a corrupt (or deliberately altered) file
+ or a file created by third-party software.
+
+ THE HDF GROUP WILL NOT FIX THIS BUG AT THIS TIME
+
+ Fixing this problem would involve updating the publicly visible
+ H5T_conv_t function pointer typedef and versioning the API calls
+ which use it. We normally only modify the public API during
+ major releases, so this bug will not be fixed at this time.
