Synopsis

========

 

Multiple vulnerabilities in libTIFF could result in execution of

Background

==========

 

libTIFF provides support for reading and manipulating TIFF (Tagged

Image File Format) images.

 

Affected packages

=================

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected

Description

===========

 

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in libTIFF. Please review

the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.

 

Impact

======

 

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted TIFF

file with an application making use of libTIFF, possibly resulting in

execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the

application or a Denial of Service condition.

 

Workaround

==========

 

There is no known workaround at this time.

 

Resolution

==========

 

All libTIFF 4.0 users should upgrade to the latest version:

 

# emerge --sync

# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/tiff-4.0.2-r1"
